Are bake sales, dress-down days and pub quizzes more your style?
If so, community fundraising is the one for you! No need to grab those running trainers and getting outside, you can support Crosslight Advice from the comfort of your own home or in the company of your friends, family and colleagues.
We would love to hear your fundraising plans and ideas, and we’ll make sure to help you wherever we can.

Crosslight’s Catalogue
Could you support our work by purchasing a gift from the Crosslight Catalogue? Your gift will directly benefit a client in need.
Below are a small collection of the gifts you can purchase to support our work and help us restore dignity and renew hope.

INSTILL MONEY SKILLS & FINANCIAL CONFIDENCE WITH A MONEY COURSE PLACE
PROVIDE PEACE OF MIND WITH A BUDGET COACHING SESSION
Payroll Giving
Did you know that you can donate to Crosslight Advice via your work? If your employer is set up for payroll giving, all you need to do is tell them you want to support Crosslight Advice and how much you want to donate each month. This is a great way to give as the donations are tax-free and it’s hassle-free as the monthly donation is taken directly from your gross pay (before tax).
Another perk to this is that some employers also offer match funding. If you decide to set up payroll giving, make sure to ask them if they also match any donations to charity. If they do, it will mean that your donation is automatically doubled at no extra cost to you (and will result in a huge win for us)!
If you are able to sign up to payroll giving, you will help us to lift people out of poverty and help them build a better future.

Leave a Gift in Your Will
At Crosslight, our core pledge is that we will walk alongside clients for as long as it takes.
There is no limit to the level of support we provide, and our goal is to never have to turn anyone away. A gift in your Will ensures we can continue providing this vital, unique service long into the future.
When it comes to leaving a legacy, we know your family and friends come first. But by choosing to leave Crosslight a gift in your Will after your loved ones are taken care of, you will be supporting the most vulnerable in our communities for generations to come.
Residuary Gift
A residuary gift allows you to leave a percentage of what is left of your estate after your friends and family are looked after.
Pecuniary Gift
A pecuniary gift is a fixed sum, or cash gift. This does not change over time and can be whatever amount you choose.
