  1. Celebrate your special occasion by asking your friends to make a donation in lieu of a gift. Your financial investment can make all the difference to a surfer who is working on their strengths and abilities.
    With your help we can focus on inclusion, wellness not illness and ability not disability.
  2. Leave a legacy – every cent provides a solid foundation for surfers with disabilities and the volunteers who help them.  Leaving a legacy of this kind ensures your values of inclusion, protecting the vulnerable, encouraging everyone to have a voice, preserving the ocean and contributing positively to the community lives on everyday – one wave at a time.
  3. Crowd Funding –  keen to help raise funds for Surf Therapy Sessions – we have a few surfers who wouldn’t be able to join in without the kind support of fundraisers like you. Get in touch and let’s see how we can do this together.

The Roxy Davis Foundation is a registered public benefit organisation (PBO number 930069168). Donations to us not only contribute to the wellbeing of surfers living with intellectual, mental or physical disabilities but they may also save you money, as certain donations are tax deductible.

Donations which meet the requirements of the Income Tax Act may qualify for a 18A receipt, with this certificate you will be able to access this tax benefit.   Our financial year ends on 28 February, any donations reflected in the bank account by this day will be eligible for a Section18A receipt for the same tax year.

SARS defines a bona fide donation for S18A purposes as a voluntary, gratuitous gift disposed of by the donor out of liberality or generosity, where the donee is enriched and the donor impoverished.
There may be no quid pro quo, no reciprocal obligations and no personal benefit for the donor.   If the donee gives any consideration at all it is not a donation.
The donor may not impose conditions which could enable him or any connected person in relation to himself to derive some direct or indirect benefit from the application of the donation.

You can donate anytime, anywhere and for as long as you like.

To make it easier we have signed up with Payfast who offer the most popular channels (Masterpass, Snapscan, Direct EFT, Credit card payments etc) – this way your money is safely transferred via a recognised platform.
