Make Your Tax Season Count
Your tax return can help save lives.
When you donate to Doctors Without Borders (MSF) Southern Africa, you’re not only supporting lifesaving medical work, you’re also making a tax-efficient donation. We deliver emergency medical assistance to people affected by conflict, disease outbreaks, natural disasters, and exclusion from healthcare — wherever the need is greatest.
MSF is a registered and accredited Public Benefit Organisation (PBO 930025677) and Non-Profit Organisation (NPO 060-840) in South Africa. This means donations to MSF qualify for Section 18A tax deductions under the Income Tax Act.
Your support helps make that work possible.
Claim your tax benefit
With a donation as little as R100, you can qualify for a tax certificate.
✔ Your donation is tax deductible
Any donation you make to MSF is specifically exempt from donations tax and can be claimed as a deduction against your taxable income, in line with Article 30, Section 18A of the Income Tax Act.
✔ You receive a Section 18A certificate
After donating, MSF will issue you with a Section 18A tax certificate, which you can submit to SARS when completing your tax return.
✔ Reduce your taxable income
Your qualifying donation reduces the amount of income on which you are taxed meaning you could pay less tax while contributing to urgent humanitarian medical care
