Why isn’t the Gift Aid amount showing in the total raised?

The Gift Aid needs to be claimed after the event from the HMRC. This can only be claimed on the fundraisers who have ticked the box to claim Gift Aid , are UK tax payers and have provided their full home address when donating online or on a sponsorship forms.

Gift Aid can take between 6-8 weeks to receive from the HMRC. Once the event is complete, you must decide if you want the fundraised money to be sent to the charity before or after the claim. In the case of the latter, a separate cheque will be sent.
