The Phan Foundation for the second time is pleased to join the Karen Education and Culture Department (KECD) in a joint appeal to support our Karen children back in our homeland in Kawthoolei.

This year, schoolchildren and teachers in Karen State are facing a perfect storm. The 3 ‘C’s – COVID-19, the Coup and Conflict – have increased in our territory this year and caused severe challenges for them and for ensuring their access to continuing quality education services.

Forced from their villages by conflict, many children now learn in makeshift schools while hiding in the forest. Reaching schools with learning materials, training and other essential support is made difficult by conflict and COVID-19 restrictions.

Since the coup, many Karen families have transferred their children to our schools. To provide for them, we need more classrooms, teachers, books, stationery, food, and dormitories. Despite enormous challenges, Karen communities are determined to give children a good education.

Please help the children of Karen State in their time of desperate need.

Your gift will help provide the basic necessities that they urgently need to learn and thrive.

All the money raised will go to KECD.

Any donation, large or small, will make a difference.

Yes, I would like to claim Gift Aid

By ticking the "Yes" box, I agree I would like Phan 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 Phan 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 Phan 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.
