Did you know? You may be eligible for a 33.33% rebate from IRD.
If you've made a donation to ChildFund in any of the past four years, you may be eligible for a charity tax rebate. For some of our donors, this means hundreds, or thousands, of dollars back in their pocket. We make the process easy for you by sending you a donation certificate every year that you can use for your claim. If you have donated to ChildFund but haven't received your charity tax certificate, be sure to email info@childfund.org.nz or call 0800 808 822 and speak to someone today.
$500 million unclaimed
New Zealand's Inland Revenue Department is sitting on your money!
There's nearly half a billion dollars of unclaimed donations sitting with the IRD. That could mean hundreds, if not thousands, of your dollars are just waiting to be claimed. Contact us today to get a copy of your tax certificate.
"How can my charity tax rebate be used for good?"
Many of our donors choose to donate their tax rebate to ChildFund, transforming every $100 into $133! You can even choose to apply your rebate to one of our matching programmes, meaning the extra donations will make a bigger impact, thanks to the support of the New Zealand Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade.
