By ticking the "Yes" box, I agree I would like Sight for Life 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 Sight for Life 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 Sight for Life 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.

How You Empower Lives

Success Stories

Ayesha Kumail, Multan

Little Ayesha, just a year old, was born with an eye condition that made it difficult for her to focus on the world around her. 

Her parents noticed that she struggled to recognize faces and objects, but they didn’t know where to turn for help.

Thanks to Sight for Life Hospital, Ayesha received a free eye screening and was diagnosed with a treatable condition.

With the right care and medical support, her vision was restored, allowing her to see her parents’ smiles and the beauty of the world for the first time.

Today, Ayesha is a happy, playful child, exploring the world with bright eyes and a big heart. Her journey is a testament to the power of early diagnosis and compassionate care.

Rabia Syed, Vehari

Meet Rabia, a 5-year-old girl from a remote village who always loved to draw but struggled to see clearly.

Her parents never realized she had a vision problem—she adapted to her world by squinting and sitting close to objects. Without an eye checkup, her future was at risk.

Thanks to Sight for Life Trust’s free school screening program, Rabia was diagnosed with Keratoconus, a progressive eye disease that could have led to severe vision loss if left untreated.

Our team provided her with the care she needed—specialized treatment, glasses, and regular follow-ups to ensure her eyesight improved.

Today, Rabia can see clearly, learn with confidence, and chase her dreams. Her smile tells a story of hope, and her future is now filled with endless possibilities.
