In the charity's own words
The company administers a charity voucher system, whereby clients gift aid funds into the charity's account. The charity reclaims basic rate tax on such donations on behalf of such clients. Sub-accounts in the donors names are created and the reclaimed tax is added to this account, funds being distributed to charities on the donors instructions.
