Any gift, however large or small, will ensure that the Edinburgh Festival Fringe Society continues to light up the streets of Edinburgh for years to come.
Leaving a gift in your Will can be a surprisingly straight forward process, but we do recommend that you consult a solicitor who will be able to discuss your plans in relation to your personal circumstances.
Honorary gifts
If you are considering what to do to commemorate an important occasion such as a birthday, anniversary or memorial, a gift to the Edinburgh Festival Fringe Society could be the perfect choice. You can make a donation to the Edinburgh Festival Fringe Society in the name of a family member, friend or colleague.
Perhaps you are looking for a unique and special surprise for a loved one who has a passion for the arts in Scotland. Or maybe you would like to support our organisation in memory of someone equally inspiring.

Gift Aid
Don’t forget to Gift Aid! As a charity, the Edinburgh Festival Fringe Society can claim Gift Aid on behalf of customers and donors who are UK tax payers.
If you agree to Gift Aid your donations, we can reclaim the tax on any qualifying donations made since 05 April 2006 at no extra cost to you. Meaning for every £10.00 you donate, we actually receive £12.50. This makes a huge difference to us.
Please note, you must pay an amount of UK Income Tax and/or Capital Gains Tax at least equal to the tax that we reclaim on your donations in any single tax year. To sign the Gift Aid declaration, please fill in and submit the Gift Aid declaration form.
