Support our Sharing the Sound Tax Back Campaign

We have just sent out our 2015 Sharing the Sound of Ireland Campaign facilitated by the Revenue Commissioners Tax Back scheme.

Young PiperYour contribution to our Campaign helps us to get young players started on the Uilleann Pipes through our programme of Access, Education, Performance and Preservation. Your support also takes us one step closer to achieving our goal to create a world class International Uilleann Piping Visitor Centre and Theatre next door at 16 Henrietta Street.

We are hugely grateful to all who contributed to the campaign last year. Together we raised over €75,000 in total, and we need your on-going support to keep this terrific momentum going.

Here’s how it works – Na Píobairí Uilleann benefit from a tax refund in respect of donations of a Revenue-designated amount of €250 or more. Simply complete the CHY4 Cert and return it together with your donation.

Alternatively you can call us on 01-8730093 with your credit card. NPU receive an additional €112 towards our campaign for every €250 you donate with no additional cost to you.

Even if you contributed to another organisation this year or if you contributed last year, you can still make another Tax-Effective donation to NPU.

Making a Tax-Effective donation does not affect your usual tax arrangements in any way, whether they are via a personal tax return, pension scheme or through your employer and you don’t need to do anything other than complete the form.

If you run a business, a corporate donation of €250 or more qualifies for tax relief in your company’s annual return. Please also consider making copies of the CHY4 Cert for friends and relations or encouraging your employer to make a tax-effective donation.

For our many members and friends in the USA, you can make a tax-effective donation to our Sharing the Sound of Ireland Campaign in the form of an Advised Gift to through our partners at The American Ireland Fund. For more information – click here.

Many thanks again for your on-going support.
