The Kovacs Fund is a stand-alone fund within the Shodokan Aikido UK Fund, housed by trustee Chapel & York, and is eligible for Gift Aid.

Gift Aid: please declare Gift Aid on your donation if you are eligible (UK tax payer) as it adds 25p to every £1 donated at no cost to you. So a donation of £1,000 is topped up by an additional £250 from the UK Government.
