Asking people to donate can feel a bit overwhelming, but you’ll be surprised at how simple it is and how supportive your family, friends and colleagues are when you’re supporting a great cause.

Workplace giving
Workplace giving is an easy way to donate direct from your salary. Most companies match donations, so it’s also an easy way to double your fundraising amount! When you visit your fundraising page, you’ll see a pay button. If your employer (or your supporters’ employer) appears in the list, then you can donate through your pay, pre-tax, through Workplace Giving.
