One-off Giving

Want to make a donation? Right now? Without setting up accounts and without making any commitments? We have some easy options for you...


Credit card donation - Make a fast, secure, donation to the charity of your choice straight from your credit or debit card – and you can increase the value of your gift by up to 28% with Gift Aid – no strings attached.

Stuck for gift ideas? - Available in £10 and £25 denominations and with a variety of cards to choose from, Charity Gift Vouchers are the present with a difference that makes a difference.

Family Account - Make it a family affair

A CAF Family Account is a great opportunity to introduce your children to charitable giving in a way that's fun, safe and easy.

You the parent (or grandparent or family friend!) open and fund a CAF Charity Account. If you're a UK taxpayer, we can reclaim tax on your donation through Gift Aid, adding up to 28% more to your balance. Then you just open a sub account for each child, giving them money to donate to charity.

Each child will receive a special account pack including a 'charity cheque book' in their name, making it easy for them to give money to charity simply by writing a cheque. They'll be able to donate securely online, too.

Give As you Earn

If you earn a salary, or if your pension is paid via PAYE, making a commitment to giving doesn't get any simpler than this. You just decide how much you want to give each month - it could be a couple of pounds, or hundreds or thousands - and who you want to give it to. Then your donation comes out of your pay packet before the taxman touches it.

Trust Services

Do you have at least £10,000 to give to charity? Do you want to give lasting support to the charities you care about – even beyond your own lifetime and name your trust after yourself or your family?

A CAF Trust is a way to give long term support to your favourite causes, using our expert advice. You build up a capital sum and give the income to charity once it’s invested. You can also choose to distribute the capital to charity at a later date. You can involve your family in your charitable giving with the satisfaction of knowing that you’re making a real difference.  You’ll never have to worry about appointing trustees or registering with the Charity Commission or HM Revenue & Customs – we cover all that for you in a matter of days.
