Why Your Donation Matters

Every child deserves a chance to grow, learn, and thrive, regardless of their physical or learning disabilities. At Little Gems, we are dedicated to making this a reality for children with special needs. But we can’t do it alone. We need your help. Your donation can make a profound difference in the lives of these children and their families.

Imagine the daily struggles faced by families of children with special needs. The emotional and financial burden can be overwhelming.

Changing Lives Through Partnership

Through our partnership with Erudite Projects, we work tirelessly to ensure that no child is denied the care they need due to financial constraints. But we need more support to continue providing these essential services. Your donations help us:

  • Provide Essential Therapies: Occupational, physical, speech, and behavioral therapies are crucial for the development of children with special needs. Your support ensures these therapies are accessible to all.
  • Equip Our Facilities: Specialized equipment, such as sensory room resources, adaptive tools, and mobility aids, are vital for our programs. Donations help us maintain and expand these resources.
  • Offer Respite and Residential Care: Caring for a child with special needs is a full-time job. Our respite and residential care services offer families much-needed relief, knowing their children are in safe, nurturing hands.
  • Support Holistic Education: Our integrated approach to education, combining therapy and multi-sensory learning, is designed to meet each child’s unique needs. Donations enable us to keep our class sizes small and maintain a high staff-to-child ratio.

Donate to an NPO, The TAX Benefits

Making a difference in the lives of children with special needs is a noble cause, and at Little Gems, we rely on the generosity of our donors to provide essential care and support. But did you know that your donations can also benefit you financially? In South Africa, donations to Non-Profit Organizations (NPOs) like Little Gems can offer significant tax benefits. Here’s how your charitable contributions can be a win-win for you and the children we serve.

Understanding Section 18A

The South African government recognizes the importance of supporting NPOs and provides tax incentives to encourage donations. Under Section 18A of the Income Tax Act, donations made to approved NPOs are tax-deductible. This means that when you donate to Little Gems, you can claim a portion of your donation back from the taxman, reducing your taxable income.

How It Works

  1. Eligibility for Tax Deductions: To qualify for a tax deduction, your donation must be made to an NPO that has been approved under Section 18A. Little Gems is one such organization, ensuring that your contributions are eligible for tax benefits.

  2. Obtaining a Section 18A Certificate: When you make a donation to Little Gems, we will issue you a Section 18A certificate. This certificate serves as proof of your donation and must be retained for your tax records. It includes important details such as the amount donated, the date of the donation, and the NPO’s details.

  3. Claiming Your Deduction: To claim your tax deduction, you need to submit your Section 18A certificate with your annual tax return. The donation amount will then be deducted from your taxable income, potentially reducing the amount of tax you owe.
