Tax Efficient Giving

Donations to Pate’s can go further through HMRC’s Gift Aid scheme. If you are a UK taxpayer, the school can reclaim 25p for every £1 you give, at no extra cost to you.

Higher-rate taxpayers can also claim (through your self-assessment tax return) additional tax relief, meaning the real cost of giving is lower than the amount donated.

You can also support us through Give As You Earn (Payroll Giving), which lets you donate directly from your salary before tax. To start Give As You Earn, please contact your company’s payroll or HR department.

By using any of our Donate buttons on this website, you will be given an option to add a Gift Aid Declaration. All other donation options give instructions on making your gift eligible.

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to get in touch with the Development Team - development@patesg.org
