Gift Aid Envelopes raise over £1 million
26 January 2012
Introduced in 2005, the Gift Aid Envelope Scheme has steadily grown in popularity and during 2011, over £1 million was raised (including Gift Aid tax).
The Scheme is an excellent mechanism to raise funds in a tax efficient manner. It enhances the value of the donations Brethren give at traditional 'Alms' collections by using 'Gift Aid envelopes' which enable the Charity to reclaim tax on their donations – currently 25p for every £1.
Provinces, Lodges, Chapters etc throughout the country have benefitted from having these additional funds at their disposal.
