Turkey & Syria Earthquake 2023 Emergency Appeal

Numerous aftershocks have been noticed after this morning’s 7.8 magnitude earthquake, which occurred while people were still asleep.

Hundreds of buildings have collapsed in both nations, and rescue crews are scurrying to save individuals who are buried beneath the wreckage.

Donate Now to help those affected by the earthquake

As the earthquake’s epicentre was close to the Turkish city of Gaziantep, millions of people in Turkey, Syria, Lebanon, and Cyprus felt it.

The earthquake destroyed neighbourhoods on the Syrian side of the border that were home to 4 million people who had been forced to flee their homes due to the protracted civil conflict in that nation. Many of them have poor living circumstances and minimal access to healthcare. The injured immediately overflowed the local hospitals.

Progress is also being hampered by the weather, which puts those who are already vulnerable in danger due to the heavy snow and rain.

Sabeel Foundation Charity has been on the ground in Turkey assisting Syrian refugees. We need your help to provide immediate emergency aid to individuals affected by the earthquake as desperate recovery operations go on.

By ticking the "Yes" box, I agree I would like Sabeel Foundation to reclaim the tax on all qualifying donations I have made, as well as any future donations, until I notify them otherwise. I understand that if I pay less Income Tax and/or Capital Gains Tax than the amount of Gift Aid claimed on all my donations in that tax year I may be asked to pay any difference. I understand that Sabeel Foundation will reclaim 25p of tax on every £1 that I give.

What is Gift Aid?

Gift Aid does not cost you a penny more, but can add an additional 25p to every £1 you donate. When Sabeel Foundation receives a donation from a UK taxpayer, we're entitled to claim an amount of tax (calculated at the basic rate of income tax in that year) paid on that donation. Once you have given your permission for us to do this on your behalf, there is no need for you to do anything else.

All that is required is that you must be a taxpayer and that would have paid or will pay sufficient Income and/or Capital Gains Tax to cover all the Gift Aid claimed on all your donations in that tax year. Please note that it is your responsibility to pay any difference.

The amount of tax we claim will be 25% of the total value of your donations in that tax year. Furthermore, if you are a higher taxpayer, you are also entitled to claim the difference between the basic rate which we will claim and the amount of tax you have actually paid. For further details on how you can do this, please contact your tax office. If your tax situation changes and your gifts will no longer be eligible for the Gift Aid scheme please contact us and we will amend your record accordingly.
