About Us
The Charity Vouchers service began in 2002. Anglia Giving, which is a non-profit company (Limited by Guarantee), runs the service. It was specifically set up to raise funds for UK charities.
Charity Vouchers were originally conceived and publicised by us, in the late 1980s. Back then, we used the name ‘Charity Gift Tokens’.
The idea is very simple: Charity gift vouchers let people buy, and then give, charitable donations as gifts. Recipients then donate their voucher’s value to any UK Registered Charity of their choice.
The charity chosen receives 100% of the voucher’s value!
Although we are a not-for-profit organisation, our company isn’t a charity itself. This is mainly because it doesn’t favour any specific charitable cause or causes. However, the company keeps the running costs of the service and administrative charges to a minimum, as any good charity does. In this way it aims to ensure that the maximum possible funds are able to be passed on to charities.
A Charity Voucher offers the great benefit of allowing the recipient of the gift to select a charity of their own choice. It actively involves the recipient in donating, making it a truly enjoyable and rewarding gift to receive.
