| Tax advantages to an organisation can be associated with many forms of giving. Large corporations may have policies and procedures in place to assist charitable support. Examples of giving can be -
Donations
- Companies often have departments dedicated to ‘charitable giving’ and donations from both large and small companies can be made regularly throughout the year.
Charity of the Year
- Companies often support a nominated charity for a year and all fundraising proceeds pass to the charity. This is an ideal way to focus on a particular area of assistance within the community and builds community liaison between the organisation and the charity. It also establishes a high profile with a reputable charity through publicity and awareness.
Grants
- Large organisations often manage charitable giving in the form of grants; this may support a particular project which can be linked to the type of industry the company operates in. It is often a valuable partnership.
Matched giving
- A simple, effective way to encourage staff to raise money through sponsorship. Companies can match the amount raised by an individual employee and donate the same amount to a chosen charity.
Payroll giving
- If you have a payroll giving scheme employees can agree to pay an amount of their salary every month.
