Gift Aid allows UK charities to claim back the basic rate tax already paid by donors on their gifts. This means that the Chapel & York UK Foundation can claim back from the government, on your behalf, 25p for every £1 donated, boosting the value of your donation to your chosen fund by 25%. If a donation is eligible for Gift Aid Chapel & York will submit and process a claim to HMRC and grant the reclaimed tax to your charity of choice along with your donation. To reclaim the tax on your donation we require a fully completed Gift Aid declaration. If you make an online donation, the system will allow you to complete a digital Gift Aid declaration. Donations via other methods will require a declaration to be sent via email or post.
