If you are a UK tax payer you can make your donations worth 25% more to us, at no extra cost to you, through Gift Aid.
Gift Aid is a government-run scheme that allows charities to reclaim the tax that you have already paid on your donations. If you are happy for The Urology Foundation to reclaim the tax on your gifts simply tick the GiftAid box when you next make a donation or send us a completed Gift Aid form.
Gift Aid is a simple way for charities or Community Amateur Sports Clubs (CASCs) to increase the value of gifts of money from UK taxpayers by claiming back the basic rate tax paid by the donor. When The Urology Foundation receives a gift-aided donation, we are entitled to claim the tax paid on that donation.
If you give £100 donation to TUF we will receive exactly £100. But if you Gift Aid it we will receive £125, increasing the value of your gift by 25%. We will claim the Gift Aid from the HMRC (HM Revenue and Customs) so you won’t pay any extra but your donation increases thanks to Gift Aid.
Once you have given us permission to do this on your behalf (by filling out this Gift Aid Declaration Form, there is no need for you to do anything else.
If you pay enough income tax or capital gains tax to cover the 20 per cent tax we reclaim you are eligible to take part. Other taxes such as VAT and Council Tax do not qualify. If you are eligible please complete this Gift Aid Declaration so we can reclaim the tax on your donations to TUF.
You must give a separate declaration to each charity you want to donate to through Gift Aid.
No, you only need to make the declaration once. It will apply to all donations you have made in the last four years as well as to all future donations.
If you stop playing tax please contact us as we will not be able to claim Gift Aid on your future donations to TUF.
If you are a donor and pay tax at a rate of 40% or above you can benefit from tax relief by claiming back the difference between the higher and basic rate on your donation. You can do this through your Self-Assessment tax return or by asking the HMRC to amend your tax code.
With Payroll Giving you do not pay the difference between the higher and basic rate of tax on your donation.
