Add 25% with Gift Aid

If you are a UK taxpayer, Gift Aid allows us to claim an extra 25p from HMRC for every £1 you donate, at no extra cost to you. Simply complete a Gift Aid declaration once, and it can cover your future donations as well as those you have made in the past four years.

You only need to tell us your full name and home address. If your circumstances change — for example you move house or no longer pay enough tax — please let us know.

I want to Gift Aid my donation and any donations I make in the future or have made in the past 4 years to MEC Foundation UK. I am a UK taxpayer and 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.

Please notify us if you want to cancel this declaration, change your name or home address, or no longer pay sufficient tax on your income and/or capital gains.
