A simple way of engaging your employees
Running a payroll giving promotion for Challengers in your workplace is a simple and effective way of engaging your employees and promoting our work.
Your staff are able to benefit from tax efficient giving, Challengers benefits from a sustainable source of income and your company benefits by demonstrating its commitment to supporting a local cause.
Payroll giving is a tax efficient scheme that allows you to make regular donations to Challengers straight from your salary. As your donation is taken out before tax, it costs you less to give us more.
For example a £10 donation will actually only cost you £8 if pay tax at the basic rate of 20% and £6 if you are a 40% tax payer.
You can donate any amount to us and stop your donation whenever you like.
