Gift Aid Management

Context

A UK donor can declare Gift Aid for any donations that they make. We then submit the declarations the HMRC and receive ~25% of the original donation. The process is so so manual; we need to introduce some order as the donations begin to scale up. We want to extend the Gift Aid management we already have in Maji.

  1. Scope: There are options to scope what you declare: a single donation, subscription, or for all donations 5 years back and any in the future.
  2. Format: We need to track the format of declaration: online, hand-written, or verbal.
  3. Cancel: We need to be able to cancel Gift Aids.

There is no such thing as “best.”
"There is no such thing as “best.” The finish line to living the perfect life doesn’t exist. It’s constantly in motion, just ahead of our grasp, moving forward at the same rate of acceleration as the expectations that will inevitably trail our accomplishments."

"This is water."
(If anybody feels like perspiring [cough], I'd advise you to go ahead, because I'm sure going to. In fact I'm gonna [mumbles while pulling up his gown and taking out a handkerchief from his pocket].) Greetings ["parents"?] and congratulations to Kenyon's graduating class of 2005. There are these two young fish swimming along and they happen to meet an older fish swimming the other way, who nods at them and says "Morning, boys. How's the water?" And the two young fish swim on for a bit, and then eventually one of them looks over at the other and goes "What the hell is water?"
This is a standard requirement of US commencement speeches, the deployment of didactic little parable-ish stories. The story ["thing"] turns out to be one of the better, less bullshitty conventions of the genre, but if you're worried that I plan to present myself here as the wise, older fish explaining what water is to you younger fish, please don't be. I am not the wise old fish. The point of the fish story is merely that the most obvio
