Tax-Efficient Giving
All donations above €250 per annum to the Blackrock College & Willow Park Development Programme qualify for tax benefits as charitable donations.
Under the new system introduced under the 2013 Finance Act, your donation can be added to by almost 45% simply by completing a form to certify that you have made a donation.
For example, for every €1,000 we receive from a tax-paying donor, we can reclaim an additional €449.94 just by submitting a completed CHY3 or CHY4 form.
This gives donors the opportunity to make an investment in the development of Blackrock College and Willow Park whilst also having a say in where a portion of the tax they pay each year actually goes.
The table below demonstrates the impact that your monthly or annual contribution can have on our overall fund-raising drive. (Examples shown represent a five year Standing Order commitment)
