HOW YOUR COMPANY CAN SUPPORT GENE PEOPLE
There are many ways that your company can support Gene People and the millions of people living in the UK with a rare or genetic condition. Here are four ways for you to consider.
Encourage your employees to use Payroll Giving
Payroll giving is a tax effective way for your employees to make donations straight from their pay to Gene People. Our recommended provider is Good PAYE and our profile can be seen on their site. They also have resources that explain how payroll giving is good for everyone.
Charity of the Year
Do you have a Charity of the Year programme? Gene People would love to be considered to be your CotY partner. You could change so many lives in one year! Please email hello@genepeople.org.uk and let us know if we’d be a good fit for your company.
Benevity
If your company uses the Benevity website for your corporate giving, Gene People is raising funds there. Simply search for Gene People on the website (https://benevity.com/). Please note, because of the nature of our work we do not have opportunities for corporate volunteering.
Match funding for fundraisers
Is one of your employees fundraising for Gene People? If so, now is the time to let them know that you will match the funding they secure. This helps them, helps us and helps you as it might be possible to defray tax.
Lastly, for our medicines industry colleagues, the Gene People Corporate Connection was designed with you in mind. Download the brochure and see how we can work together.
