How can I give?
If you would like to give to Wharfedale Vineyard, then please follow these steps:
Pray about giving and decide how much of your income you believe the Lord wants you to give and how often.
Ways to give regularly
- Set up a standing order from your current account. Please also complete the Gift Aid Declaration on the same form. Just click on the dark green words to get the form or ask and we will be happy to post copies to you.
- Set up a standing order from a charity account such as Stewardship or Charities Aid Foundation. Quote charity number 1071353, Wharfedale Vineyard, The Vineyard Centre, 5 Sheepscar Court, Northside Business Park, Leeds, LS7 2BB.
- You can give very effectively through Payroll Giving. Your employer may already run this scheme, if not, ask them to do so. It works like this: the employer deducts an amount from your salary (so neither you nor the employer have to pay tax or NIC) and pay it straight to an account with Stewardship or Charities Aid Foundation for example. You can then give from that account to Wharfedale Vineyard in the ways mentioned before.
Other ways to give
Some people also give to Wharfedale Vineyard when they receive their annual bonus, or an inheritance, make a profit on the sale of their house or business, in their will, or on spontaneous occasions when they believe God is prompting them to. You can do this in the following ways:
- A cheque from your current account. Please also enclose a Gift Aid declaration, or complete one online.
- An electronic transfer from your telephone bank or Internet bank to The Wharfedale Vineyard. Sort code: 20-63-25 Account number: 13376745 (Barclays Bank). Please add a reference including the word Gift. Please also complete a Gift Aid declaration.
- Charity cheques from a Stewardship or Charities Aid Foundation account.
- By credit or debit card, via mydonate
- It is good to leave charitable legacies through your will. This is very tax efficient and makes a public statement about your priorities. Indeed, if you have given throughout your life then why not give on your death? You may wish to insert a statement such as: “in acknowledgement that everything I have comes from God, I wish to give 10% of my estate to Wharfedale Vineyard or to the last church to which I regularly gave”.
- We prefer to avoid handling cash (and there is normally no collection), but if this is essential for you, then please place your gift in an envelope marked with your name, and put it in the locked wooden box on the resources table, or give it to Anne Button, who will arrange for it to be counted and properly recorded.
