Membership and Donations

 

Efforts to send humanitarian medical aid in the form of equipment and drugs to Cuba are supported by both UNISON and the Institute of Health service Managers. Scottish Medical Aid for Cuba welcomes donations and affiliations from organisations and individuals.Organisations are also invited to send a delegate to meetings of the Committee.

As a recognised Scottish charity , we are able to claim from Inland Revenue the income tax paid on donations and membership subscriptions. This 'gift aid' scheme currently adds 28pence to every£1 given us by a tax payer. All donations and membership subscriptions made since April 6th 2000 are eligible. If you are an existing supporter, or wish to join or make a donation, please complete the 'gift aid' declaration form HERE.

Cheques/Postal Orders should be made payable to Scottish Medical Aid for Cuba.

Many supporters of Scottish Medical Aid for Cuba make their contributions by monthly standing order or direct debit payments. The impact of even relatively modest contributions is significant. For example, a single donation of £2 per month - increased to £2.56 by 'gift aid' - purchases a total of more than 5500 paracetamol tablets, 5000 multivitamin pills and 4000 anti-histamine tablets each year.

Given that the administration costs of Scottish Medical Aid for Cuba are minimal, contributors are assured that the whole of their donation is devoted to providing vital medical supplies
