Reclaim Gift Aid

Gift Aid It!Add 25% more to your donation at no cost to you. A Gift Aid declaration allows Muslim Global Relief to claim tax back on eligible donations. It means that for every £1 you donate to Muslim Global Relief we can claim back 25p, at no extra cost to you.

By ticking the "Yes" box, I agree I would like Muslim Global Relief to reclaim the tax on all qualifying donations I have made, as well as any future donations, until I notify them 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 I may be asked to pay any difference. I understand that Muslim Global Relief will reclaim 25p of tax on every £1 that I give.

What is Gift Aid?

Gift Aid does not cost you a penny more, but can add an additional 25p to every £1 you donate. When Muslim Global Relief receives a donation from a UK taxpayer, we're entitled to claim an amount of tax (calculated at the basic rate of income tax in that year) paid on that donation. Once you have given your permission for us to do this on your behalf, there is no need for you to do anything else.

All that is required is that you must be a taxpayer and that would have paid or will pay sufficient Income and/or Capital Gains Tax to cover all the Gift Aid claimed on all your donations in that tax year. Please note that it is your responsibility to pay any difference.

The amount of tax we claim will be 25% of the total value of your donations in that tax year. Furthermore, if you are a higher taxpayer, you are also entitled to claim the difference between the basic rate which we will claim and the amount of tax you have actually paid. For further details on how you can do this, please contact your tax office. If your tax situation changes and your gifts will no longer be eligible for the Gift Aid scheme please contact us and we will amend your record accordingly.

This is Yundum, in the West Coast of Gambia. Very few households here have pit latrines, so several large families are forced to share. In desperation, many people resort to defecating in open areas, like fields. Women cannot relieve themselves, or bathe without worrying for their safety. The dire lack of sanitation facilities is creating a serious health hazard in Yundum.

Open sewage and poor sanitation can cripple whole communities. It can cause infectious disease, keeping men and women from work and children from school. For smaller children, such diseases can often be fatal. In communities where poverty is rife, a lack of safe water and sanitation means people with little money are forced to spend what they have on medication and healthcare.

With your support, MGR is building public pit latrines and sanitation facilities at New Yundum Market. We’re also installing a safe water source near the latrines, all within easy access to the local community. The facilities will include three toilet cubicles; three shower cubicles with water tanks; a five-seat wudu area for hand washing and religious ablution; as well as a borehole water-pump providing safe water for consumption.

The New Yundum Market is strategically located at the heart of the Yundum rural community. The market is frequented by 38 male and 171 female vendors every day. The facilities will also serve children and teachers at nearby schools, as well as people visiting the nearby clinic. A further 96 men and 142 women from local households will also have access to the facilities.

At MGR, we’re water experts. With simple, development solutions we can turn rural communities around. Donate Now to support our Water and Sanitation projects.
