2 Agenda Introduction to the PGS & How it Works Unique Benefits About Us Data Security & Financing of the Scheme How to Get Started Q&A

3 What is the PGS? The Parish Giving Scheme (PGS) is a direct-debit facility originally developed by the Diocese of Gloucester to provide a professional, effective donation management system to support parishes in funding their mission and ministry. Donations made through this scheme use a Direct Debit. This can be made on a monthly, quarterly or annual basis. Each donation is restricted to a parish church. Gift Aid is reclaimed and passed onto the parish directly.

4 Committed Christian Giving GA & Non GA Donors S,M,L Churches & Gifts Replace the Volunteer GASDS (not yet ) Won t be for Everyone
