Gift Aid is a government scheme that allows you to increase the value of your gift by a total of 25% without costing you any extra, meaning a gift from you of £10 will be worth £12.50 for T.A.A.P. Foundation Charity. To qualify for Gift Aid, you need to pay sufficient income and/or capital gains tax in the tax year of the Donation to cover the Gift Aid that all charities that you donate to in that year will reclaim. The current amount is 25p on top of every £1 you give.

You are eligible for Gift Aid if you are a UK tax payer, i.e. if you can say yes to any of the options below:
• You pay UK income tax on paid employment
• You pay tax on a UK private pension scheme
• You pay tax on UK savings
• You have recently paid UK capital gains tax on the sale of a property or shares – or expect to pay it in the near future
• You pay UK tax on Self-Assessment
And you pay enough tax in the tax year of your donation to cover the additional 25% that will be reclaimed by all of the charities that you have donated to in that tax year. For example, if you make total donations of £100 in a tax year, you must have paid £25 in tax to be eligible for Gift Aid on all of the donations.
If you are a UK taxpayer, we can collect an extra 25% on top of your donation at absolutely no cost to you. This makes a big difference to our income, so please do sign a gift aid declaration if you are eligible. By signing the declaration, you are confirming the following:
• I am a UK taxpayer and I wish TAAP Foundation (Charity) to claim Gift Aid at no extra cost to myself on all the donations I’ve made to the charity over the past four years and all donations I make in the future until I notify you otherwise. I understand that if I pay less Income Tax and/or Capital Gains Tax than the amount of Gift Aid claimed on all my donations in that tax year it is my responsibility to pay any difference. I also confirm:
• I am donating my own money and the funds have not come from anyone else including family members or from an office or bucket collection
• The money I am donating is not the proceeds from sales of goods or services or the sale of tickets
• I have not received something in return for this donation such as an entry ticket to an event or a raffle ticket
• I understand that the tax reclaimed will be used to help fund the whole of TAAP Foundation’s work.

Yes, however TAAP Foundation will not be able to reclaim Gift Aid on those donations.
To be eligible, the donation must be from your own money. But provided you pay UK tax, one-off and regular giving donations are both eligible for Gift Aid.
You might still pay tax on a private pension scheme or a savings account, or pay capital gains tax if you sell property or shares. The amount of tax you have paid needs to be more than the amount that all charities you have donated to will be reclaiming each year.
We can only reclaim tax on your gift at the basic rate. If you are a higher rate tax payer, you can claim the difference between the higher rate of 40% and the basic rate of 20% in your Self-Assessment tax return. Additionally, on your Self-Assessment form you can nominate us to receive all or part of any tax repayment due to you.
