Charities can now claim back the tax paid on all donations, which means we can do more with your money. In each tax year you need to pay enough income tax and / or capital gains tax to cover the amount we shall be claiming back from the Inland Revenue (at present we may claim 28p for each £1 donated).
All you need to do is select the box on the form below and fill in your UK residential address and Help the Aged will treat your donation accordingly. You may end this arrangement at any time. Please let us know if you no longer pay enough tax.
Gift Aid:
I want Help the Aged to treat all donations I have made for the six years prior to this year, and all donations I make from the date of this declaration until I notify you otherwise, as Gift Aid donations.
Gift Aid Notes In each tax year you must pay an amount of Income Tax and/or Capital Gains Tax at least equal to the tax that the charity reclaims on your donations (currently 28p for each £1 donated, equivalent to income tax at 22%).
