Ways to give

Whichever route suits you, the money goes to the same place: grants to Bulgarian partners, awarded against detailed proposals. No trustee is paid, and we employ no fundraisers.

Online

The quickest route. A card payment takes a minute, and you can add Gift Aid as you go.

What the evening holds

How many are you coming with?

Payment is taken by PayPal, in a new tab. You can pay by card without a PayPal account.

Or make a donation

Do you pay UK tax?

If you do, a Gift Aid declaration adds 25p to every pound you give, at no cost to you. It takes a minute and covers this gift and any you make later.

Your Gift Aid declaration

Send this, and the button to pay appears underneath. Your declaration goes to our Honorary Treasurer; this website keeps no copy.

If you pay UK income or capital gains tax, Friends of Bulgaria can reclaim 25p for every £1 you give, at no cost to you.

Both must be ticked — HMRC will not accept a claim without them.

I want Friends of Bulgaria to treat all donations I have made in the past four years, and all future donations, as Gift Aid donations until I notify you otherwise.

I am a UK taxpayer and understand that if I pay less income tax and/or capital gains tax in the current tax year than the amount of Gift Aid claimed on all my donations, it is my responsibility to pay any difference.

Please tell us if you stop paying enough tax, change your name or home address, or want to cancel this declaration.

Standing order

Regular giving is what lets us commit to a partner for a whole year rather than one project at a time. Set one up with your bank using the details opposite, then tell our Honorary Treasurer so we can thank you and claim the Gift Aid.

Gift Aid

A quarter more, at no cost to you.

If you pay UK Income Tax or Capital Gains Tax, we can reclaim the tax already paid on your gift. It adds 25p to every pound you give, and you pay nothing extra.

To make a declaration we need your name, your home address, the date, and confirmation that you are a UK taxpayer. One declaration covers past, present and future gifts, and stays valid for five years.

You must have paid at least as much Income or Capital Gains Tax in the year as all the charities you support will reclaim on your gifts. Please tell us if that changes, or if you stop paying tax.
