Overview

You can claim back 25p every time an individual donates 1 to your charity or community amateur sports club (CASC). This is called Gift Aid.

You must be recognised as a charity or CASC for tax purposes.

There are rules on which donations you can claim Gift Aid on.

You can claim Gift Aid online - you should get your payment within 5 weeks.

What the donor needs to do

The donor must:

have paid at least as much in Income Tax or Capital Gains Tax in that tax year as you want to claim in Gift Aid
make a Gift Aid declaration that gives you permission to claim it

If the donor has not made a declaration, you may still be able to claim on cash donations of 30 or less, for example from a collection.
