Gift Aid

If you are collecting in Northern Ireland from UK taxpayers, ask your sponsors to Gift Aid their donations. Gift Aid allows Oxfam to reclaim the basic rate tax from the Inland Revenue. There is no extra cost to the donor and the process is simple - all you have to do is ask your donors to tick the Gift Aid box on the sponsorship form, and to ensure that their full address and postcode is included.

Cheques should be made payable to Oxfam.
