ACKNOWLEDGEMENT OF
GIFTS
As a
charity, we are always looking at ways to reduce our costs. Due to
rising postal charges, we are now replying
to donations and letters via email wherever possible. All humanitarian
aid donations, and monetary gifts under £10, will only be acknowledged
on provision of a stamped
addressed envelope. It would be helpful to let us know whether you
require an acknowledgement of your donation. Thank you for helping us to
maximise the amount of available funds that we can use directly on our
projects to help those in most need.
Donations received for
particular projects, which are either no longer in operation or cannot
wisely be applied to that project, will be used for other Smile
International projects. Contributions are received on the understanding
that Smile International has complete control over the use of all
donated funds.
On behalf of the Trustees, staff, volunteers
and all those we are seeking to help – thank you so much for supporting
us in our work.
