Payroll giving

Payroll Giving, Workplace Giving or Give As You Earn (GAYE) is a scheme for UK taxpayers to donate money to UK Registered Charities.[1]

Introduced in 1987, Payroll Giving allows employees to make donations to the UK registered charity of their choice directly from their gross pay, with no tax deduction for the charity to claim back.

Some companies[2] have put in place a matching gift program to match or part match their employee donations via Payroll Giving.
