Regular donations are a lifeline. They give us the ability to act swiftly in emergencies - whether it’s an earthquake, a typhoon, or another crisis - bringing life-saving aid to those who need it most. And they’re also the foundation for long-term change, allowing us to plan ahead, sustain vital projects, and build brighter futures for people with disabilities and vulnerable communities.

By giving regularly, you’re making an even bigger impact. Your ongoing support helps us reduce fundraising costs, so more of your generosity goes directly to transforming lives on the ground.

And it’s simple. You can choose a donation amount and frequency that works for you, spreading your support across the year without needing to think twice. Plus, you’re always in control - you can adjust or cancel your gift at any time.

If you’re a UK taxpayer, don’t forget to say yes to Gift Aid. It adds 25% to the value of your donation at no extra cost to you, making your generosity go even further for people who need it most.

Gift Aid is a government scheme that allows charities to claim back tax on donations made by UK taxpayers. This means that for every £1 you donate, we can claim an extra 25% from HMRC, making your donation worth 25% more to us at no extra cost to you! 

For example, if you donate £50, we can claim an additional £12.50 through Gift Aid, making your total contribution worth £62.50! 

Gift Aid can only be claimed if you are a UK taxpayer and are donating your own funds. If you pay less Income Tax and/or Capital Gains Tax than the amount claimed through Gift Aid on your donations, you will be responsible for paying the difference. 

Claiming Gift Aid on your donations is quick and easy. During the donation process, you’ll have the option to tick the Gift Aid box, confirming that you’re a UK taxpayer and wish to support our work through this scheme. 

Once you’ve signed up for Gift Aid, it will apply to all your donations until you tell us otherwise. You can cancel it at any time by contacting us. 

You can change your monthly amount at any time. However, it may not take effect immediately.
