Give While

You Earn

Donating a portion of your salary is one of the most efficient, tax-effective ways to support a charity. Choose Spark2Life and you can help us keep a young person safe every payday.

How it works

Setting up Payroll Giving is quick and simple.

Each payday, your employer will take your chosen donation from your gross salary. The donation is taken after National Insurance is deducted, but before tax.

This means that your donation will cost up to 45% less through the tax break, dependent on your tax bracket. Find out more on the HMRC website.

Please note that Payroll Giving is only available for salaried PAYE employees.

Benefits for you

  • Changing lives
    Help us support young people affected by violence across London, Buckinghamshire and Kent.
  • Tax effective
    The only way to give that allows full tax relief on donations.
  • Easy
    Quick, convenient and ideal for busy people.
  • Secure
    Set up your donation without sharing your bank details and choose how you want to be contacted.

Benefits for employers

  • Recognition
    Get noticed through the Payroll Giving Quality Mark scheme and National Payroll Giving Excellence Awards.
  • Low effort, big reward

  • Employee engagement
    Engage your employees by enabling them to support the causes they care about through their pay.

Next steps

Ask your employer if they already have a Payroll Giving scheme in place. If not, suggest that they register with a company like Charities Trust and encourage them to find out more on the Charities Aid Foundation website.

Memory

Raising funds and donating in memory of a loved one is a special way to remember them.

There are many ways of celebrating the life of your loved one, from setting up a tribute page that lasts for years to collecting donations at their funeral.

Tribute pages

Tribute pages help family and friends to celebrate their life by sharing photos and messages, collecting donations in their memory and remember them at special anniversaries.

You can set up a free individual tribute page in your loved one’s name with our partner organisation, MuchLoved.

If you'd like more information, or have a question, call our Supporter Care team on 020 4531 6208 or email us.

Leave a 
Gift in
Your Will

Help build a future where no child or young person has to face alone the impact of violence and criminal exploitation.

Our vision is for all children and young people to have the support they need to build lifelong coping skills and thrive.

We have compiled information and guidance to help you make the best, informed decision for you and your loved ones. If you would like to leave a gift in your Will to support Spark2Life’s work, we would be delighted to discuss with you how your generosity will help us be there for a generation of young people who need our support.

How do I leave a gift in my Will?

Making a Will allows your loved ones to be cared for after your death. Having this important document ensures that your specific wishes will be carried out exactly as you would like – and can help to alleviate some of the distress of those dear to you at a difficult time.

We recommend that you seek the advice of an independent professional such as a solicitor when writing your Will.

The Law Society offers a free Find a local Solicitor service or you can find a solicitor by calling 020 7320 5650.
