St Margaret’s launches urgent fundraising campaign

At St Margaret’s we took time to look back and want to share what we’ve been doing since lockdown back in March – when life changed for all of us.

Watch our video to hear from some of our incredible parents and if your circumstances allow please consider donating to help us continue to be there for all the adoptive families who need our support.

Due to Covid19 restrictions, we could lose up £100k in donations as the way we normally fundraise has been hugely affected. All donations fund our Extended Post Adoption Support Services (EPASS). These services are available to any adopted child and adoptive families from anywhere in Scotland from all faiths and none.

Standard post adoption support lasts one year, St Margaret’s offers its EPASS services for life to those who need it. EPASS includes home visits, therapeutic playgroups, teenagers groups, peer support groups and lots of family events.

Any donation is so appreciated and can be made in various ways through our website on this page or via JustGiving > www.justgiving.com/stmargaretscfc or by cheque posted to 26 Newton Place, Glasgow, G3 7PY.

Tell me more »

By ticking the "Yes" box, I agree I would like St Margaret's Children and Family Care Society 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 St Margaret's Children and Family Care Society 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 St Margaret's Children and Family Care Society 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.
