We are very keen to build relationships with corporate partners that have a strong CSR vision and a desire to support development in rural Africa, or groups of employees keen to combine their efforts with ours to save lives.
Fundraising Challenges
This is a great way for small or large teams of employees to raise vital funds for the Virtual Doctor service whilst promoting co-operation, team-building and, most importantly, fun! Learn more here.
Our two partners are market-leading challenge companies Charity Challenge and Action Challenge.
Payroll Giving
Payroll Giving is a way for employees to make regular payments to charity directly from their pay. Payments that employees make through a Payroll Giving Scheme are deducted from their pay before tax is removed. This means they get tax relief on the donation immediately – and at their highest rate of tax.
Employers with high participation rates can win Bronze, Silver and Gold awards from the Government. For employees, Payroll giving is one of the easiest and most effective ways to make regular donations to charitable causes.
Find more details on how to set up Payroll Giving from HMRC.
Corporate Partners
Our corporate partners are a very special group who have generously donated funds, goods, services, time or expertise to the Virtual Doctors service. Without their help we couldn’t make such a difference to sick people in rural Africa – thank you!
Trusts & Foundations
Our pioneering work has been generously supported by a number of trusts and foundations. To them, and to those organisations who prefer to remain anonymous, we give heartfelt thanks.
