Payroll giving donations are an efficient and invaluable way to support Concern. They provide us with a regular, reliable income enabling us to plan overseas development programmes in the longer term, budget for the future and help achieve our goal of ending extreme poverty.
How it works
Payroll giving donations are taken straight from your salary before tax, meaning it will cost you at least 25% less to support Concern as you earn. The tax relief you get depends on the rate of tax you pay. More details on the tax relief you can expect can be found on the HMRC website.
Setting up payroll giving is quick and easy and no bank details are needed.
Once your form has been processed, a copy will be forwarded to your employer who will then arrange for your donation to be deducted from your next available salary.
Become a payroll giver
The money raised by Concern Worldwide (UK) payroll givers each year is enough to provide 3,750 children living in informal tented settlements in Lebanon having fled conflict in Syria with books, stationary and learning materials needed to help them to adapt, catch up with their education and get their lives back on track.
