Payroll Giving for employees
The most efficient way to give
Payroll Giving is a scheme run by your employer that allows you to donate to a charity tax-free through your salary. It's also known as Give As You Earn (GAYE).
You can donate to as many charities as you like. And your donation will automatically stop when you leave your employer.

The potential of your donations
The amount of tax relief your chosen charity receives depends on your tax band. For example:
| Amount you give each payday | Cost to a standard 20% taxpayer | Cost to a 40% taxpayer | Cost to a 45% taxpayer |
|---|---|---|---|
| £10 | £8 | £6 | £5.50 |
| £50 | £40 | £30 | £27.50 |
How your monthly donations will help beat cancer
Over the last full 5 years, our Payroll Givers have raised £17.8 million. With your support we can invest in multi-million pound research projects like TRACERx. This study is looking at how lung cancer evolves, which could help doctors stay one step ahead of the disease and help more people survive. At £14 million, this is the biggest single investment in lung cancer research we’ve ever made.
