Give in memory

We know that the loss of a loved one is never easy and
we are always particularly touched to receive donations
from friends and family in memory of a loved one.

Ensuring your loved one’s memory lives on

In choosing to hold a collection for The Elizabeth Foundation, you’ll make sure your loved one’s memory lives on through our work helping young, deaf preschool children learn to listen and talk.

The ways you can collect or make ‘in memory’ donations are by:

  • using our collection envelopes,
  • setting up an online ‘in memory’ fundraising page,
  • making online donations of money you have collected.

Whether you decide to make a one-off donation in memory of a loved one, or set up a funeral collection or online tribute page, our Fundraising Team are always here to help you at this very difficult time. Please get in touch if we can help you in any way.

Using our collection envelopes

We can send you some of our specially-designed collection envelopes, making it easy for friends and family to donate at a funeral or memorial service.

When you use collection envelopes, you can raise 25% more at no extra cost because UK taxpayers can complete a Gift Aid declaration on the envelope so we can reclaim tax on their donations.

To order collection envelopes, please complete the form on this page or contact us – we’re here to support you every step of the way.

Funeral directors are usually willing to gather up the envelopes on your behalf and arrange for them to be sent to The Elizabeth Foundation. All donations will be acknowledged.

You must be a UK taxpayer and understand that if you pay less Income Tax and/or Capital Gains Tax in the current tax year than the amount of Gift Aid claimed on all of your donations across all Charities, it is your responsibility to pay any difference.

The Elizabeth Foundation reclaims 25p for every £1 you donate from the tax you pay for the current tax year. If you change your name, address or tax status, do let us know.

Setting up an online
in memory page

An online tribute fund is the perfect place to share your memories of a loved one and, if you choose, to support our work through online donations.

A tribute fund gives you the opportunity to celebrate the life of a loved one with friends and family through leaving heartfelt messages, sharing special photos, stories, and even videos of your loved one.

In choosing to set up a tribute fund, you can be assured that every penny generously donated will enable your loved one to live on through our work with children with all degrees of deafness.
