Payroll Giving

Does your company offer a payroll giving scheme? Payroll Giving is an easy, tax-effective way to give. It enables you to give to Africa Now straight from your salary before tax is deducted, giving immediate tax relief on those donations. If you donate £10 each month it would cost you only £8, therefore costing you LESS to give MORE.

Please visit the Work Place Giving website for more information.

Corporate giving

Perhaps your company would like to nominate Africa Now as their charity of the year, or even match fund your own fundraising efforts.

Gift Aid

Gift Aid is a great way to stretch the value of your donation at no extra cost to you. If you pay capital gains tax and/or income tax on your salary, pension or even your saving equal to 25% of your donation then Africa Now can claim Gift Aid. All you have to do is sign and date a Gift Aid declaration – it’s as simple as that!

Make your donations go further at no extra cost to you!Gift Aid is currently at 25p per £1 with an additional 3p per £1 in transitional relief. So, if you donate £15 to Africa Now, we’ll receive an additional £3.75 from the tax man!
