It is also possible to make Lifetime Giftsof Shares and other assets directly to the Church.Unlike gifts to non-charities anasset transfer to a church will not incur capital gains tax. The donor is also able to claim income tax relief on the total value of the gift. In addition a Lifetime Gift will not be subject to Inheritance Tax should the donor die within seven years. By Payroll Giving – This scheme is designed to allow employees to make donations to charities including the Church. The donor benefits from all the tax relief as PAYE is calculated on the amount of earnings less the amount given as a donation. It is the employer who sends the money deducted in this way directly to the charity. (Note not all employers offer this facility.)
