Who am I?

I can move mountains.

I build cities and destroy them.

I’ve brought people together since time began and I have the power to tear them apart.

It takes a great wall to hold me back but I can be held by a human hand.

I run faster than Usain Bolt and run around the globe.

Yet for millions I run out far too soon.

Every year people spend 40 billion hours in search of me.

I killed more people than all forms of violence including war.

I am the one thing no one can live without be they rich or poor or young or old or living anywhere Under the Sun

I cover 70% of our planet.

Yet for 748 million people, I’m still hard to find.

I am essential to life yet far too often I ended lives.

Reclaim Gift Aid

Gift Aid It!Add 25% more to your donation at no cost to you. A Gift Aid declaration allows Islamic Welfare Trust to claim tax back on eligible donations. It means that for every £1 you donate to Islamic Welfare Trust we can claim back 25p, at no extra cost to you.

Tell me more »

By ticking the "Yes" box, I agree I would like Islamic Welfare Trust to reclaim the tax on all qualifying donations I have made, as well as any future donations, until I notify them otherwise. I understand that if I pay less Income Tax and/or Capital Gains Tax than the amount of Gift Aid claimed on all my donations in that tax year I may be asked to pay any difference. I understand that Islamic Welfare Trust will reclaim 25p of tax on every £1 that I give.

What is Gift Aid?

Gift Aid does not cost you a penny more, but can add an additional 25p to every £1 you donate. When Islamic Welfare Trust receives a donation from a UK taxpayer, we're entitled to claim an amount of tax (calculated at the basic rate of income tax in that year) paid on that donation. Once you have given your permission for us to do this on your behalf, there is no need for you to do anything else.

All that is required is that you must be a taxpayer and that would have paid or will pay sufficient Income and/or Capital Gains Tax to cover all the Gift Aid claimed on all your donations in that tax year. Please note that it is your responsibility to pay any difference.

The amount of tax we claim will be 25% of the total value of your donations in that tax year. Furthermore, if you are a higher taxpayer, you are also entitled to claim the difference between the basic rate which we will claim and the amount of tax you have actually paid. For further details on how you can do this, please contact your tax office. If your tax situation changes and your gifts will no longer be eligible for the Gift Aid scheme please contact us and we will amend your record accordingly.

FAQ about IWT’s Donation Policy

How do we cover our expenses?

We roughly spend about £25,000 (this is the top-end figure actual expenses are always lower) on wages, travel, marketing, rent and administration of the charity. Between £15k and £20k is covered by Gift Aid, while the remainder is covered by taking a small percentage (not exceeding 10%) from donations, excluding Zakat and Emergency Appeals.

We promise to spend £9 out of every £10 donated to us. Insha’Allah
