  • Shares

    Giving shares is a simple and tax-efficient way of donating to your selected charity or cause. Tax relief is available to UK taxpayers donating shares listed on the UK stock market, the Alternative Investment Market and recognised stock exchanges overseas. It's also available to units in a UK unit trust and shares in a UK open-ended investment company.

    Donors can claim income tax relief equal to the market value of the shares on the day the gift is made, plus any associated costs such as the broker's fees. In addition, capital gains tax that you may have incurred on any increase in the value of the shares since you bought them won't apply.

    Please contact us at givingshares@london.edu for more information. Pilling and Co acting on behalf of the School will then liaise directly with your broker to ensure the smooth and efficient donation of your gift of shares.

  • Match funding

    Corporate gift matching schemes enable you to increase the impact of your gift to London Business School thanks to your employer matching it to a varying percent. To find out if your company operates such a scheme please contact your Human Resources or payroll department who should be able to provide you with further information. If your company does have a matching scheme they should be able to advise you how to take part and make the value of your gift to London Business School even greater.

    See a list of organisations who operate a corporate matched giving scheme. If your company does not appear on this list, please contact your HR department. If you have any questions about corporate matched giving please email us at lbsfund@london.edu

  • Gift Aid

    UK taxpayers can maximise the value of donations to London Business School by signing a Gift Aid Declaration. For every £1 donated, we can claim an extra 25p from the Government in Gift Aid.

  • Give as you earn

    CAF's Give As You Earn (GAYE) scheme allows UK employees to give to charitable causes through their payroll. Only organisations signed up to the scheme with CAF can give through the GAYE scheme. If you are a UK employee and would like to donate to London Business School through the GAYE scheme, please speak with your employer to confirm if this is a possible avenue for you. If your employer has not signed up to the scheme you will not be able to donate through GAYE with CAF. You can find more information about the scheme on the CAF website: https://www.cafonline.org/my-personal-giving/plan-your-giving/caf-give-as-you-earn

    If you are an LBS employee, please visit the People Hub for further details on how you can set up GAYE.

  • Legacy information

    The 1964 Society acknowledges alumni and friends who have pledged to continue the ambition of the Schools founders by recognising LBS in their wills. Our development and success over more than fifty years has been made possible through the support of members of the LBS community, and leaving a legacy gift is the most profound support someone can give. Leaving a legacy is straightforward, either by including the School in a new will or adding a codicil to an existing one. For more information on how to leave a legacy gift to the School please contact Sarah Theobald-Palmer, Director of Annual Giving, at stheobald-palmer@london.edu

  • Donor Advised Funds

    Donor Advised Funds (DAFs) are a tax-effective way to manage charitable giving and support the causes you care about.

    For donors in the UK, you will need to request a distribution from your DAF provider and reference London Business School or our Royal Charter Number: RC000721. You should also indicate your gift designation. Payments can be made by bank transfer or cheque but please speak with your DAF on the appropriate method. Gifts to your DAF will be eligible for Gift Aid. You can also donate stocks and shares to your DAF. Please contact the Donor Relations team if you have further questions about giving to us through your DAF.

    For donors in the USA please visit the CAF America website for further details of giving through your DAF.

    For dual UK and US tax payers please contact the Donor Relations team for further details.
