How we are funded
How we minimise costs to donors and maximise benefit to charities
How do we cover costs?
ShareGift is a charity which is dedicated to solving the problem of unwanted shareholdings. We make no charge to donors, charities or partners for donating to, or working with, ShareGift.
We also designate all funds arising from the sale of donated shares to grant-making. This means that we guarantee that any money we generate from selling donated shares will be used to support beneficiary charities.
We have a small team and operate a virtual office in order to keep our costs down, but like all charities we do have costs. So how are these covered?
Only a small percentage of these income sources is required to cover our costs – we add everything else to the funds we release from share sales to make grants to charities.
We exist to make share giving of all kinds easy, and to use the resulting funds to support charities in the UK. We do not sit on funds for extended periods of time. Every month we are looking to use all available funds to make grants to charities.
