We want donating to be simple, and, so far as possible, tax-effective. We have set up an account called 'The Cochrane Foundation' to receive donations. The following methods are recommended:
By credit or debit card
By cheque
Other donation methods
By credit or debit card
If you are from any country except the USA
(but including the USA, where tax-efficient giving is not an issue)
Use the Charities Aid Foundation (CAF) website:
- Enter 'Cochrane Collaboration' in their keyword search, then click the 'Search' button.
- Click on 'Donate' link and follow the instructions.
(Note: If you are a UK taxpayer, please remember to tick the GiftAid box). - Smile and relax: you have done a good thing!
If you are from the USA and need tax-efficient giving
(minimum donation $500)
Use the CAFAmerica webpage:
- Fill in the details of your donation.
- At the box 'Suggest a foreign charity' write 'Cochrane Collaboration'.
- Please DO NOT tick the box 'OR donate to CAFAmerica', or we will not receive the donation.
