In round figures, we can claim back 45% of what you donate. <strong>So if you give \u20ac250 a year, we can get back \u20ac112 from revenue, which means that the \u20ac250 is now worth \u20ac362 to the parish.<\/strong> <strong>An annual amount of \u20ac350 would give us a rebate of \u20ac157.5 and a total of \u20ac507.5, and so on. <\/strong>The bigger the amount donated, the more the parish can claim back.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Two important points to note are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>It will not increase the amount of tax you have to pay to revenue. The rebate comes from tax you have already paid anyway.<\/li>\n\n<li>You cannot claim the tax back for yourself. It can only be claimed by a registered charity, which applies to the parish.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In order to claim the tax back, the parish must have a record of your donation. If it totals \u20ac250 or more in one year, and you pay income tax, then you qualify for this scheme which helps the parish at no extra cost to yourself.
