To be clear about this, the trustees of the Scottish Junior Chess Association Educational Trust have agreed that funds raised for the purpose outlined by Robin meet the criteria authorised for charitable fundraising through the trust by the Scottish Charities Regulator (OSCR). We have therefore authorised the BTMYDonate page Robin provides a link to to be used for this purpose.
Please also note (and this is very important), any donor who wishes to Giftaid their donation must be a current taxpayer and must fill in the minimal (but essential) detail required, as advised by HMRC, so that BYMyDonate can collect any Giftaid. Without that no Giftaid can either be claimed or collected and donations will go through without it.
The trustees have recently set up this BTMyDonate facility as an efficient way for donors to donate funds to the Trust. We can raise funds to improve our general balances or for specific purposes (as long as the latter meet the trust's OSCR approved objectives ... and if in any doubt, ask a trustee first). The trust's website can be accessed either through Robin's link to the (trust's) BTMyDonate page or through the information box at the CS website homepage.
