Impact Giving (UK) Trust can increase the income of Christian workers, churches or organisations by reclaiming tax on your supporters’ giving. Currently, for every £100 given, the recoverable tax is £28.

We reduce your administration allowing you to get on with your ministry.

Who can benefit?
Christian workers engaged in Bible teaching ministry or evangelism, as well as churches and other Christian organisations. We will also consider applications from those in training for a Christian ministry.

Starting your fundraising
We are happy to supply you with tailored forms for your supporters and a covering letter explaining the benefits of partnering with Impact Giving for your support.

Your supporters
We set up Impact Giving Charity Accounts for your supporters, and recover the tax on donations covered by a Gift Aid declaration. They decide how much and how often, and whether to give anonymously. They can also choose to use the account for giving to other Christian beneficiaries. They receive quarterly statements detailing payments in and out of their account, including any tax reclaimed.

Receiving
In normal circumstances, we are able to pass on any gifts within a couple of weeks of us receiving them (the small delay enables us to keep control of the cash flow). Depending on the number of supporters and the amounts involved, we can collate gifts and transfer them to you as a single payment on a regular basis. You can request a breakdown of the gifts to ascertain who they are from (if not done anonymously).

Tax recovery
This is generally made once or twice a year for the accumulated total of an individuals donations, though larger or one-off payments are usually reclaimed within six weeks of the payment, and are allocated to your ministry according to the wishes of your supporters.

The Trust does not charge for its giving services but asks your supporters to consider a 2% donation to cover administrative costs, which is normally taken from the tax refunds.
