Charity Vouchers

New

Graham Mytton I collect for FEBA and Save the Children Fund Posted 12 hours ago

In the last couple of years, both CAF and Charities Trust have ended their voucher schemes. They both argue that the use of vouchers has declined. But I like to be able to use vouchers. Especially at church or in the street when someone is rattling a tin., I can add my tax automatically for the charity on the spot by giving a voucher. There are many other occasions such as funerals, when I raise money for my favourite charities, answer a mailed appeal with having to bother with gift-aid forms, and give in my own time at my convenience. Both CAF and Charities Trust have shot themselves in the foot. Is there any other similar scheme. There was a Christian one giving out vouchers to use but I cannot remember its name. Does anyone know it or indeed other alternatives. Both CAF and Charities Trust claim that they have discussed the matter with Charities! I find that difficult to believe. I closed down my CAF account that I have used now for 40+ years. I keep the Charities Trust account and pay things online. But Charities Trust takes several weeks to post my monthly payment. It leaves my bank on day x but it doesn't appear in my Charities Trust account for up to a month! I would like to close my Charities Trust account and start with one that allows my former ways! Can someone advise. I have been trustees of a few charities. I find the behaviour of CAF and Charities Trust to be weird and self-defeating. What are they now for?
