The Truants Africa Bike Ride

RACE NATION PAGE

This is the ideal way of donating via credit card especially as Gift Aid is taken automatically. Upon registration, a Race Nation page will be automatically created for you and an email sent with links to edit your page.

Click Here for the “How To..” guide on customising your page.

Please be aware that donations received on your Race Nation page in currency other than Sterling, will automatically be converted to Sterling. So any friends in the USA or Australia or South Africa (of course) can just send in donations in their own currency on their own card.

WIRE TRANSFERS

For larger transfers, we ask that you use this mechanism. This is also the best way for companies to donate as they cannot claim Gift Aid.

If an individual is donating, it would raise more money if you can email a Gift Aid Certificate to them and ask them to return to Charles.

CHEQUE DONATIONS

This isn’t the ideal way to donate due to the extra admin, but if no other option- please ask your donors to make their cheques payable to “The Truants Foundation” and on the back of the cheque, please ask them to write (your) SURNAME/AFR25   If they are paying on a personal cheque, please ask them to complete a Gift Aid form and send cheques and forms to:

Charles Bradbrook
SLRV Accoutnancy
89 New Bond Street
W1S 1DA

To claim the tax back on the donation some contributors may ask for Receipts from the Charity. These can be arranged so contact Helen and give her details. Once the money is banked she will arrange a receipt with all the details necessary. Some may wish to have the Charity Number which is: 1191441

GIFT AID  from a UK taxpayer is 25% on top of the donation so very appreciable and it therefore helps to get Gift Aid forms completed for these donations from individual UK Taxpayers and send them completed to Charles, ideally with the cheque.  Note that Gift Aid can automatically be taken on RaceNation so no need for any forms.
