Help us to help others

Thousands of the most disadvantaged in our communities rely on us for help, but we cannot do this without your support.

With most charities, you can only support one cause or one group of people, but with PKAVS you can do so much more.

PKAVS is a charity that helps thousands of local people including the elderly and disabled, those recovering from mental illness, carers and even children who look after a seriously ill or disabled parent or sibling.

This is as well as helping find funding and volunteers for other local charities!

This is how you can change a life

Amy does not have an easy life; she is the sole carer for her ill Mum. However, through our young carers’ project, we help her with school, in the home and with social activities to make sure she receives the support she deserves.

Friends of PKAVS

You can make a difference by giving now using a debit or a credit card. It’s not just Amy; there are so many like her relying on us.

Please help us to help others; there are hundreds who need you to.

The payment will be processed by Charities Aid Foundation using the high security Pay Pal system.

If you would rather give by cheque, they should be made payable to PKAVS and posted to us at The Gateway, North Methven Street, Perth, PH1 5PP.

If you’re a tax payer, remember Gift Aid! By stating that you’re a taxpayer, we can claim an extra 28% of your donation. If you give £5, the tax man will add another £1.40 meaning PKAVS gets £6.40!

To become a regular donor and give using a standing order, please contact Lorna Ower or on 01738 567076

£500 For You & A Donation Doubled For Us

You can also donate to PKAVS through your employer’s payroll. Not only is the gift aid added automatically (another 28% at least) but the government can also double your donation!!!

Ask if your employer is signed up. The organisation (company or charity) can also receive up to £500 from the government if they are so do ask! If you want to know more about payroll giving, contact Lorna Ower or on 01738 567076.

The Benefits of Payroll Giving

If you work for an organisation that has less than 500 employees, your company can receive £300, £400 or 500 if they sign up to payroll giving. This is awarded by the Home Office of the UK Government.

Plus! The Government will also double any donation up to the value of £10 made by an employee of an organisation with less than 500 employees. And they will do this for 6 months.

Employees can give to any charitable organisation or church and the donation is taken from their payslip by whoever does the payroll. This is then sent to Charities Aid Foundation add the Gift Aid and double it before passing it to the relevant charity.

If you gave £5 each month, £12.80 would be given to charity. Fantastic! Your company can even decide to give part or all of its £500 to charity.
