Tax-effective giving - are you claiming your share of the missing millions?

NAVCA has partnered with the Institute of Fundraising to provide members and local groups with comprehensive tax-effective giving training and support. Training is available on:
  • Gift Aid

    - increase voluntary donations by nearly a third, maximise income opportunities such as membership and sponsored events and prepare your organisation for the changes in basic-rate tax
  • Share Giving

    - around £100 million is given to UK charities in shares each year with an average value of £7,000. Get your share
  • Payroll Giving

    - set up and promote a reliable income stream that opens doors to local businesses and networking opportunities
  • Legacies

    - one of the most cost effective fundraising techniques, raising £1.6 billion each year and the largest single source of voluntary income for UK charities
  • Basic Rate Tax

    - find out what the reduction in income tax will mean for your charity after April 2008
