Charities Aid Foundation
Our cause and vision

Our vision
A society motivated to give ever more effectively, transforming lives and communities around the world.
Our mission
An integrated customer-focused organisation for donors and charities that stimulates giving, social investment and the effectiveuse of funds.
Our promise
To be transformational across every aspect of the business.
Our impact
We distribute over £1m to charities on each working day of the year. And through the bank we own, our higher interest rates and lower fees mean an extra £20m goes to the charity sector each year.
Our services
Our core activity is to provide innovative financial services to charities and their supporters:
• for individuals we make it easy to give, to find charities and to support them tax-efficiently
• for companies we set up giving, volunteering and community programmes
• for charities we offer low-cost banking, investment and fundraising services

Our values drive everything we do. We are:
• trusted – our 80 year track record of helping people give effectively has earned us the trust of charities and donors alike
• dynamic – we are enthusiastic about our ability to fuel positive change
• human – we deliver our professional service with a personal touch
• confident – we are optimistic about the future and not afraid to take risks
