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.

MGR-water-gaza-550x325

When we think of countries most affected by the water crisis, we think of South Asia and Sub-Saharan Africa. But safe water is a scarcity in the Gaza strip, where an estimated 95% of drinking water doesn’t meet WHO standards. Consuming tap water in Gaza, exposes people to water borne diseases like diarrhoea, parasitic infection, and blue-baby syndrome. In fact, a UNICEF report stated that 26% of diseases in Gaza are caused by contaminated drinking water. But this report was released in 2010. Seven years on, the situation is even more dire.

MGR is working to tackle the water crisis in Gaza by targeting affected communities through small-scale water projects. Communities like those based in Al-Toffah, Eastern Gaza, where we’ve installed a large water dispenser at the local hospital. Hayfa Care Medical Centre serves over 5000 people – patients and their families, weekly.

MGR installed a second water dispenser at Brainy Bunch Kindergarten – located in a remote and underprivileged area of Eastern Gaza. The school is attended by some 200 local children whose families continue to tackle the worsening water crisis. The dispenser will also provide for local families (of students), visitors as well as school staff.

A third water dispenser was installed at a local mosque, the Central Masjid at Eastern Gaza, where community members congregate to meet and pray. It is estimated that the mosque is frequented by 300 people per day. Strategically located, it is within easy access to those in need within the local community.

The dispensers are filled daily with fresh water from a local, micro-desalination plant and delivered by tankers. The dispensers have a cooling system that runs on electricity, and have a very low maintenance cost.
