~ Payroll Giving ~
Payroll giving is also know as Give as You Earn and is a unique way forpeople to give regularly to charity.It allows employees, or occupational pensioners, to give money to any UK Charity directly from their pay, before tax is deducted. Simply put, R.A.T.S. would get a bigger donation and it costs the donor less.
Currently, over £85million is raised for charitable causes through Payroll Giving.
Providing that your employer offers a Payroll Giving scheme it couldn’t be simpler. You authorise your employer to deduct regular charitable donations from your pay. Your employer then pays those donations to a Payroll Giving Agency approved by HM Revenue & Customs (HMRC). The agency then distributes the money to the charity or charities of your choice.
