Old Edwardians may be spread around the world, but there will always be a patch of Edgbaston they can call home.
We are grateful to the many global alumnae who give back to the girls and the school.
You may be able to give tax-efficiently if you live outside the UK. Below is a list of known services for international gifts from Europe and the United States.
European Giving
Transnational Giving Europe (TGE) is a private network of 19 countries which enables donors (both corporations and individuals) resident in one of the participating countries to support charitable organisations in other member countries, while benefiting directly from the tax advantages in their country of residence.
To participate in the scheme, donors can give their gifts to the TGE foundation in their home country which then provides the donor with a tax receipt and transfers the gift to the beneficiary organisation.
Please note that it can take up to three months for the donation to reach us.
To find out more about Transnational Giving Europe, please visit their website.
United States of America
For those paying US taxes, donations to the Assisted Places Fund can be made through the BSUF (British Schools and Universities Foundation Inc). Grants made by the BSUF to the Assisted Places Fund enable donors in the US to claim an income tax deduction under Section 501 (C) (3) from the US Inland Revenue Service.
When you are asked for the ‘Approved Institution’, please note that The King Edward VI High School for Girls Birmingham Trust sits underneath the umbrella of the Schools of King Edward VI in Birmingham (The Foundation). Please input “The Schools of King Edward VI in Birmingham – KEHS” as the ‘Approved Institution’.
