Business

Get together with colleagues to support animals in need.

Easy ideas to get your business involved:

Charity of the Year:

Inspire and motivate your employees by choosing us as your Charity of the Year. Or let us know if there are any longer-term partnerships you’d be interested in!

Payroll Giving:

This flexible scheme allows anyone who pays UK income tax to give tax-free to charities of their choice regularly. Find out more about Payroll Giving.

Match funding:

Check if your company offers matched funding. If they do every £1 you raise (usually, companies set an upper limit), your company could double it. If your company does not have a matched funding scheme, why not suggest it to them – it’s a great way to bring your team together, and they can claim tax relief on their donations. Find out more from CAF online.

Host your own fundraising event with support from our Raystede Fundraising Team.

For example:

Hold a quiz:

Why not host a pub quiz, hold a raffle, or have a karaoke night or open mic night and ask for a donation?

Have a collection tin:

We would love to hear from you if you want to raise money for us by having your own collection tin. Contact us to arrange it, and we’ll drop it off.

Corporate Partnerships

Partnering with us is a great way for us to work together to raise the profile of your business and raise vital funds for animal welfare.
