The Costa Foundation is working with an independent charity partner, Charities Trust, and is operating under the auspices of Charities Trust's registered charity number 327489. Charities Trust is wholly responsible for the administration of the Costa Foundation. This allows the Costa Foundation trustees to focus on which projects to support and getting behind their peoples' fundraising efforts.
Charities Trust will also claim Gift Aid (to reclaim the basic rate income tax on donations made to them by UK taxpayers) and provide management reports detailing where monies have been raised and allocated.
