Can I use Gift Aid to pay the proceeds of fundraising events?
If you have simply collected money from other people and they have not made a declaration to the charity that they are taxpayers, the payment is not Gift Aid-able. However, if you have been sponsored for an event, and each sponsor has signed a Gift Aid declaration (the tick box on the sponsor form) and given us their name and full address, then we can reclaim the tax on the amounts covered by their declarations.
