Easy ways to give
There are many ways to fundraise for United Response that mean you can donate money while carrying on with your normal activities. It’s as easy as shopping online!
Payroll giving
Payroll giving is an easy way for you to give to United Response straight from your salary. As the donation comes out of your gross salary, the Government gives United Response the tax that they would otherwise have kept. In other words, it lets you give even more at no extra cost to you.
For example:
| You donate | £5 | £7.50 | £10 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Cost to you as a 20% tax payer | £4 | £6 | £8 |
| Cost to you as a 40% tax payer | £3 | £4.50 | £6 |
It’s worth speaking to your employer about their matched giving policy as you may be able to double your donation with input from them.
