Reclaim Gift Aid

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

By ticking the "Yes" box, I agree I would like Nour-al-sham.org 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 Nour-al-sham.org 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 Nour AL Sham Foundation 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: £50.00 One Time

On Friday 8 September, 11pm local time, a 6.8 magnitude earthquake struck Morocco. The epicentre was in the High Atlas Mountains, approximately 70 kilometres south of Marrakesh. A 4.9 magnitude aftershock followed just 20 minutes later.

Local authorities are reporting that more than 2,900 people have died, with many more critically injured. The total number of people affected is in the hundreds of thousands.

Your donation of £250 will provide shelter for injured people from the earthquake.

Many of the worst affected areas are remote and mountainous, and the impact of the earthquake has made them even harder to reach.

People have lost everything. Homes have been reduced to rubble and survivors are in need of basic support like shelter, food and water.

How is the NASF helping?
People have lost everything. Right now, Moroccan Governments are helping deliver vital aid to survivors in the Earthquake areas and is supporting with rescue efforts.

This includes:

 

  • First aid and medical assistance.
  • Search and rescue.
  • Evacuating families.
  • Provision of food, water, emergency shelter kits and other relief items.

How can you help those affected by the floods?
The best way to help us reach people affected is by donating to our appeal, which supports local teams on the ground.
