How is the PFRA funded

All members pay an annual membership fee depending on their membership category:

User (charities) – £100

Provider (professional fundraising organisations) – £250

Associate – £40.

However, the bulk of PFRA funding comes through a per capita levy paid by our user members. Charity members of the PFRA contribute 75p for each donor they recruit through F2F fundraising. This ensures that the vast majority of our income is paid by charities out of donated income and not by fundraising agencies, which helps to ensure that we are a charity-led organisation.

Charities conducting 'prospecting' – collecting potential donors' contact details so they can be asked to give at a later date – pay a levy based on the number of donors they could expect to recruit had they been fundraising at the site. This has been calculated at £6.75 per site per day.
