corporate giving
There are many ways in which you, your business and your employees can support LASS. A partnership with LASS will, in turn, provide many benefits to your company.
- Opportunity for good PR
- Team building opportunities to increase morale
- Fundraising opportunities for employees
- Cash incentives for promotion of Payroll Giving
Four of the services we provide rely solely on donations. They are The Foodbank, the David Manley Fund, Winnie's Fund for Children and the Tim Aubrey Complementary Therapies Fund. Our Volunteers and Supporters work hard to raise the �30,000 it takes a year to maintain these services at the current level. However we see new people with HIV every week and expenditure is set to rise.
Development of partnerships with local businesses is integral to our fund raising strategy. Your support will make a big difference to people affected by HIV/AIDS in Leicester, Leicestershire and Rutland.

payroll giving scheme
In the 2004 Budget the Chancellor announced cash incentives for small and medium sized businesses that promote Payroll Giving among their employees. It couldn't be easier to set up and because the donation is taken before tax is deducted a donation of £5 per month costs your employee just £3.90 at the standard tax rate.
