We receive many phone calls from people who have similar questions. So we decided to list a few here for all to read. Although we have tried to list them below, please do not hesitate to contact us if you want more information.
Cerebral palsy is a condition that affects movement, posture and coordination. These problems may be seen at or around the time of birth. If a child has cerebral palsy it means that part of their brain is either not working properly or has not developed normally. It may be the result of a problem occurring during the first weeks of the baby’s development in the womb (such as an infection) or in a number of cases can be the result of a difficult or premature birth. Sometimes there simply is no obvious cause.
No. We look after people of all ages. Many people who came here were children and have lived here all their lives.
Yes we do.
Yes- we can issue receipts in terms of Section 18A of the Income Tax Act. We applied to SARS and received a PBO number (130 001 839) in terms of Section 30 of the Income Tax Act.
We do get queries from some companies who need to score points on their BEE Scorecards and feel that they need to make donations to ” BEE qualifying ‘organisations ” in order to score these points. We then applied for a BEE certificate which is 75% – Black beneficiary Base.
• Clothing.
• Furniture and appliances
• New goods and services – Some people and companies like to donate goods
they make or services they provide rather than cash and this is also most
welcome. We are able to issue a section 18A for the value of the goods
or services donated.
Yes, These are available to you because we are a section 18A public benefit
organization. This has real benefits for our donors. Every donation you
make to the United Cerebral Palsy Association now and in the future means
that you will receive an 18A tax receipt together with our
acknowledgement of thanks in appreciation of your gift.
N.B. All tax-related documents are valuable! Please keep all tax receipts
in a safe place until required by the S.A. Revenue Services to submit your
tax return.
