Charitable Donations

Make Your Donations Go Further - Gift Aid It !

As a supporter of SFR Family Support Trust, you will know how hard we work to ensure that every penny we raise goes as far as it can to help past and present employees, in need of support and assistance.

We encourage all donors, who are tax payers, to Gift Aid  their donations. It's quick and simple and allows the Charity to reclaim the tax already paid, from HMRC.

How does it work?

So long as you are a UK taxpayer, Gift Aid enables you to boost the value of your donations by 28p for every £1 you give (25p in Gift Aid and a further 3p in Transitional Relief).

E.g. If you decide to give £10 to SFR Family Support Trust we will be able to reclaim an extra £2.80 from HMRC. It might not sound like a lot, but every penny really does count! What's more, if you are a higher rate taxpayer, you are entitled to claim tax relief on your donations, enabling you to reclaim as much as 25p from every £1 donated to charity.

What do you need to do?

To donate through Gift Aid, all you need to do is complete a simple declaration form confirming that you are a taxpayer and that you are happy for us to claim tax relief on your donation.

Just one declaration can apply to all donations that you have made to us over the past 6 years and to any forthcoming gifts you make, until you notify us otherwise. It's that simple!
