We’re Building a Better Club
Sports Project Donation
GBSC’s Training Room and Boat Storage development project qualifies as an officially approved sports project for tax relief under the Revenue’s Tax Relief scheme for Donations to Certain Sports Bodies.
Any donation of €250 or more towards the project in one tax year will qualify for tax relief. The donation can be made in more than one payment as long as it is all within the one tax year.
Please contact the Club Treasurer Andy Flanagan at treasurer@gbsc.ie or on 083 8445817 should you wish discus options or if you need any clarifications on the scheme.
