Your regular donation will enable Variety to continue to provide practical help for children and their families coping with chronic sickness, disability or disadvantage.
Tax-free Payroll Giving
Payroll Giving is a voluntary and very easy way to donate to Variety, the Children’s Charity.
It is also very tax efficient for both of us, because your donation is made from your gross income (before tax). That means you are not paying tax on the amount you donate but Variety is able to obtain the tax you would have paid. So, if you are a standard rate tax payer, a donation of £5 per month will only cost you £4.00 but Variety will receive the full £5 from the tax man. If you pay tax at the higher rate, the cost to you is even less.
This government-approved scheme is administered for Variety by Payroll Giving in Action which is a member of the Institute of Fundraising. The organisation operates this service under the brand name Giving Online and does not take any commission on your donation.
All you need to do is complete one simple form and your donation will be set up.
Payroll Giving in Action, and your employer, will advise Her Majesty’s Revenue and Customs of your donation instructions once the form is completed. Your donation will then automatically be made to Variety every pay day. It really is that simple.
Your instructions and personal information will remain strictly private and confidential at all times. Depending on the payroll system used by your employer it may take up to 6 weeks for your donation to appear on your payslip.
Changing or cancelling donations
You can change or cancel your donations at any time just by completing the Giving Online form again and indicating under ‘Please select donation type’ if you are ‘replacing previous instructions’ .
