Launched in January 2006, the Payroll Giving Quality Mark recognises and rewards organisations for making Payroll Giving available to their staff. Comprising a certificate and logo, as well as Bronze, Silver and Gold Awards, the Quality Mark aims to provide UK charities with sustainable income streams by increasing participation in Payroll Giving.
Once you set up a Payroll Giving scheme, you will automatically receive a certificate as well as a logo for use on your letterheads, websites and other company literature. These acknowledge that you have implemented Payroll Giving and demonstrate (both within your organisation and publicly) that you are committed to the good causes your employees care about.
