By Standing Order:

A standing order is completely under your control. You decide how much you would like to give and how often. If you want to change this amount, or the payment date, or even if you want to stop the standing order once it has been set up, you can do this at any time just by contacting your bank. You do not need to inform AET of any changes but it would help us in our administration if you did.

All you need to do is contact your bank and ask them to set up a standing order to the Africa Educational Trust on a weekly / monthly / annual basis - you decide, and let them know how much you would like to give each time. You will need to tell your bank our sort code and account number, please ask us to send you these details. It is very important that you ask the bank to use your Surname and Initial as a reference otherwise we cannot trace your donation and will be unable to acknowledge receipt.

Thank you.

Gift Aid - Please sign up!

Using Gift Aid means that every pound you give, we get an extra 28 pence from the Inland Revenue, helping your donation go further.

This means that £100 can be turned into £128, just so long as donations are made through Gift Aid. Imagine what a difference that could make, and it doesn't cost you a thing. So if you want your donation to go further, Gift Aid it!

All you need to do is print out the standard Gift Aid Form and return it with your donation by post or e-mail. If you cannot download the form, you must follow this procedure otherwise we cannot re-claim your tax.
