Gift Aid
Make Even More Impact for Parrots With Gift Aid
Gift Aid is a simple way to increase the value of donations from UK taxpayers. If you're a taxpayer, you've already paid tax on any gifts you've made to the World Parrot Trust (WPT). That means your donation qualifies for Gift Aid.
How it Works
When a UK taxpayer makes a gift to WPT, tax has already been paid on that money. This money qualifies for Gift Aid. As a registered charity (UK Reg# 800944) WPT can claim an amount equal to the tax paid from HM Revenue & Customs (HMRC). And the best part is — it can increase the value of your gift by 25% at no cost to you!
How it Benefits Parrots
For example, Gift Aid on a £100 donation would generate an additional £25 for parrots — this could pay for a bag of food for birds at the UK rescue centre, or supply an artificial nest box to help restore populations in areas where their numbers are dwindling.
Next Steps
All we need is your permission to reclaim the tax you have already paid to HMRC. It’s really easy, doesn’t cost you anything and makes your original gift go even further for parrots!
Simply complete and submit the declaration form to confirm your Gift Aid status, which will enable us to claim your gift aid on all your previous eligible donations, as well as any future gifts.
