There are lots of ways you can donate to our work. Every donation will help us provide support to the UK’s fostering community.

Other ways to give

There are several other ways you can donate to our work:

Shop online with the Giving Machine, it's free to use - simply sign up and choose The Fostering Network to receive donations every time you shop

Set up a Facebook fundraiser to celebrate your birthday or a special occasion. Create your virtual collection and ask friends for donations in place of presents.

Payroll giving

This is an easy way to take your support further and improve life for children in foster care now and into the future. You choose how much you wish to give each month. The donation is taken from your pay, before tax, so it will actually cost you less. For example:

  • if you pay the basic rate tax, a £10 donation to The Fostering Network will cost you only £8
  • If you are a higher rate tax payer, a £10 donation will cost you only £6.

It’s a great way to give, and easy to opt in and out of whenever you wish.

What to do next:

Speak to your employer today and ask your payroll department about setting up a donation to The Fostering Network (quoting our registered charity number - 280852).  If your employer doesn't have a scheme, let us know and we can help them to set one up!
