Tax refund

There is a way to help us where you get a nice bit back from the tax authorities. It’s called a donation by notarial act. This is of course not the first thing you think of, but it’s worth the trouble because you then in fact give more help without it costing you more. So that’s great. This is only known for people paying taxes in the Netherlands, if you pay tax somewhere else, sorry, we can´t help you!

The advantages:

• The tax authorities pay a substantial part (up to 52%) of your donation
• You promise to support us for a minimum of five years, so that you help make possible the long-term projects
• The amount of your donation is deductible from your income
• It costs only a little time: you download the authorization, fill it in and send it with a copy of your ID card to Notariskantoor Smit & Moormann in Wageningen, they do the rest – free of charge.

Smit & Moormann do this for free, but because of that, they process all request at the same time. Therefore it can take a year before you get a respons! Let us know if you want to support us, so we can give you more information!
