Government gives to Waldenses
Too good to be true? No! For every donation which you make to the Walden-
sian Church Missions, the Government will add a further 28%, providing
you are a tax-payer.
Since 5 April 2000 the new Gift Aid scheme has replaced Deeds of Cov-
enant and the process is much simpler. This applies to all donations of any
size or frequency. Thus a gift of only £1 made once will be increased by 28%
as will a monthly donation of £100.
All that is required is for the donor to complete a simple declaration in
the form given below and to forward this to the Treasurer whose address is
on the inside of the back page. Once this form has been completed it covers
all future donations by the same person. Unlike Deeds of Covenant, you are
not committed to regular giving for a number of years.
Some of you have already completed such a form, but for those who have
not, I would urge you to consider seriously this opportunity for the Walden-
sian Church Missions to benefit from the Government’s generosity, but more
importantly, to enable our giving to our friends in Italy to be increased.
