Information for employees

Give As You Earn (GAYE) is the most cost-effective way of supporting Born Free.  Payroll giving costs you less, yet the taxman gives Born Free more! 

Information for individuals

If you earn a salary, or your pension is paid via PAYE, this is a simple way to support Born Free. 

With Give As You Earn (GAYE), you give directly from your pre-tax salary.  So money that normally goes to the taxman goes to Born Free instead! 

Just decide how much you want to give each month – it could be a couple of pounds, or hundreds or thousands!  Then your donation comes out of your pay packet before the taxman gets to it.  If you’re a basic rate taxpayer and want to give £5, you pay £4 and the taxman adds £1!

It’s so easy, and your gift will help our wildlife charity to save lives and stop suffering.  Brilliant!

All you have to do is:

1. Check your company offers the scheme (we produce a GAYE Info Sheet for employers)

2. Decide how much you’d like to give each pay day.

3. Complete the form below and return to Born Free.

4. Leave the rest to us!  We’ll set up your regular donation with your employer.
