Leaving collection for work

I’m after a bit of advice.
I have recently started working for quite a large organisation and my colleague is leaving in a few weeks.
I have been tasked with sorting out her leaving collection and gift. Trouble is, we are all working from home and I don’t really know many of the other staff members as I am new.
So, what do you think is the best way of organising an online collection?
I’m pretty clueless about what to do and the few people I do know at work who I’ve asked have no ideas either.
Would PayPal be an option? Although I know not everyone at work has a PayPal account.
Any ideas gratefully received!

Do you have their email addresses? You could ask them all to send you £2 each paid through their bank with your mobile number so you don't have to give out your bank details and then buy something which can be delivered.

You can set up a PayPal money pool for people to pay into, we often use them - offer you bank details too in case anyone doesn’t use PayPal but most people do I usually find

Thank you for your replies, I appreciate it.
In the end I set up a Money Pool with PayPal, it was really straightforward.
