Habitat's Response: Poland

Donate

To date, more than 3 million people have crossed into Poland, fleeing the violence in Ukraine.

From the beginning of the crisis Habitat Poland have been on the ground, supporting refugees from Ukraine to secure temporary shelter.

Over the last four years, Habitat Poland have piloted and delivered their ‘Empty Spaces’ programme over the last 4 years. The programme renovates empty flats or houses in Warsaw, providing accommodation for those in need of affordable housing. Due to the ongoing crisis, Habitat Poland will continue to roll out this programme, to provide mid/long-term housing solutions to the most vulnerable families.

Habitat ReStore in Warsaw is furnishing units where Habitat is placing refugees fleeing from the crisis in Ukraine. ReStore is also acting as a source of furniture, bedding and household supplies for host families who have opened their homes to refugees.

Yes, I want to Gift Aid any donations made to Habitat for Humanity NI now, in the future and in the past 4 years. I am a UK taxpayer and I understand that if I pay less Income and /or Capital Gains Tax than the amount of Gift Aid claimed on all my donations in that tax year it is my responsibility to pay any difference. The Gift Aid claimed will be used to help fund the whole of Habitat’s work. Please notify us if you 1) want to cancel this declaration 2) change your name or home address 3) no longer pay sufficient tax on your Income Tax and/or Capital Gains Tax. We are required to hold your current home address to identify you as a UK taxpayer; if we do not have this we may be unable to claim the Gift Aid on your donations.

Gift Aid is reclaimed by Habitat from the tax you pay for the relevant tax year. (If you pay Income Tax at the higher rate and want to receive the additional tax relief due, you should include your Gift Aid donations on your Self-Assessment return or ask HMRC to adjust your tax code.)

No, I am not a UK taxpayer (please also tick if you have told us we can claim Gift Aid in the past but this is no longer true.)
