Gift aid it!

Gift Aid can be confusing for many people, especially if you’re doing lots of different types of fundraising. Here are a few things that may help you:

  1. We can only claim gift aid if the donor is a UK taxpayer.
  2. To claim gift aid on any donation, we need the full name, address and postcode of the donor. This is very important to look out for on sponsor forms – make sure you’ve got full details!
  3. If you (or your donor) has received a ticket or a product in exchange for the donation, we cannot claim gift aid

Please make sure you ask your supporters/sponsors about gift aid – it means we can claim an extra 25% on any donation where gift aid is applicable – that’s 25p in every £1! Definitely worth the effort. If you need more information about Gift Aid, please call the Toybox office, we will be happy to talk you through it!

What to do with the money you’ve raised

You can send in the money you have raised in three ways:

  1. In the post – simply put your cheque(s) in the post to the Toybox office – Toybox, PO Box 5967, Bletchley, Milton Keynes, MK3 6WD - please make cheques payable to 'The Toybox Charity'

  2. Online – you can make a donation online, selecting the fundraising option to let us know what you’ve been up to

  3. By Phone – you can call 0845 466 0010 to speak to one of our Supporter Care team (Monday-Friday, 9am-5pm) and make a donation over the phone.
