Barnardo’s in Ireland has launched a ‘Tax Back Appeal’ to claim up to €750,000 from
donations made over the last four years. It is inviting donors who gave €250 or 
more in 2006, 2007, 2008, or 2009 to fill tax reclaim forms.

The charity says that under the Government’s Tax Effective Giving Scheme donations
of €250 or more in the year could be worth up to 72% more to their work with children
in Ireland.

In common with other Irish charities Barnardo’s is under pressure financially and
sees growth in tax reclaims as an important revenue stream.

debit or standing order of €21 a month or 5 donations of €50 in one year are eligible
for tax reclaim.
