Gift Aid is a tax relief allowing UK charities to reclaim an extra 25% on eligible donations made by a UK taxpayer.
This means that by claiming your Gift Aid, you could increase your donations by 25% – an important source of unrestricted income!
So why does a massive £564 million of Gift Aid go unclaimed in the UK each year*?
Fundraisers regularly tell us they feel uncertainty around Gift Aid, the eligibility, what you can and can’t claim on. Without knowing what you’re doing, the claims process itself can be daunting and time-consuming.
Get Grants NEW Gift Aid MASTERCLASS will tell you everything you need to know about Gift Aid and how to get the most out of it.
Led by Fundraising Expert Rosie Milsom, this Masterclass will give you practical support, expert top tips, and build your confidence to communicate the benefits of Gift Aid to your donors, put in place processes for claiming Gift Aid that work for your organisation, and ultimately increase your organisation’s unrestricted income!
