By ticking the "Yes" box, I agree I would like Al Ihsaan Trust 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 Al Ihsaan Trust 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 Al Ihsaan Trust 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.

Donation Total: £100.00

In the UK Rising prices could mean an increase in absolute poverty and material deprivation. The Resolution Foundation estimates that absolute poverty will rise in 2022/23 by 1.3 million including 500,000 children.

The Covid-19 crisis has driven disadvantaged households further into poverty.

The cost of living crisis is set to push many more people into poverty as soaring prices hit low-income households the hardest.

It means many will struggle to afford the food they need and be forced to rely on food banks. The Trussell Trust gave out 2.1 million emergency food parcels between April 2021 and March 2022, an increase of 14 percent compared to the same period between 2019 and 2020.

Therefore it’s clear that like many poor world countries we need to also work together to help those in need even within the UK.
