I have read this statement and want the charity or community amateur sports club [named above] to reclaim tax on the donation detailed [above], given on Tuesday, April 14, 2026. I understand that if I pay less income tax / capital gains tax / annual remittance basis charge in the current tax year than the amount of gift aid claimed on all of my donations, it is my responsibility to pay any difference.

My Story…

Description

The Ricky Byrdsong Memorial Race Against Hate is the largest racial justice run/walk event of its kind in the nation. Every year, thousands of people from all over Chicagoland and the country come together to honor the legacy of Ricky Byrdsong and to run and walk in unity against racial hatred and violence. All proceeds from the Race support YWCA Evanston/North Shore's mission, including their violence prevention and racial equity programs.
