Gift Aid Awareness Day

Gift Aid Awareness Day and our #TickTheBox campaign is an opportunity for charities across the UK increase engagement with Gift Aid by:

• Sharing the enormous impact Gift Aid has on beneficiaries and communities.
• Promote public understanding of Gift Aid.
• Show why it is so important to #TickTheBox.

We'll soon be launching our 2026 campaign toolkit, so watch this space!

About the Gift Aid Awareness Day campaign

Since 2018, charities across the UK have been taking to social media for one day every October to share the #TickTheBox message with donors, supporters, volunteers and others.

When you get involved, it is also a chance to:

• Recognise your supporters/donors’ generosity
• Celebrate your impact
• Get donors excited about what more we can all achieve if they #TickTheBox.

Charity volunteers and staff can get involved by spending Gift Aid Awareness Day to talk to supporters about what Gift Aid means to them and why it is more important than ever to #TickTheBox.

For Gift Aid Awareness Day, CFG will be running our Gift Aid Awareness Day webinar. Watch this space: event details to follow soon.

We value your involvement

Does your organisation have a story about what gift aid means to them or is something creative being done in this space? Or want to tell us more about new ways that we can support you to make 2026 Gift Aid Awareness Day the most impactful so far?

We want this year's campaign to be co-created with charities across the UK. We would love to hear from your organisation to see how we can make this year's Gift Aid Awareness Day bigger, better, and more impactful than before.
