Below you'll see how to contribute. Every contribution is welcome, in whatever form.
One-off or annually. iDEAL, credit card and more. The donation is processed by WhyDonate and paid out directly to the foundation's bank account.
We have ANBI status. You may therefore be able to get part of your gift back through tax. A periodic gift of €200 a year would then cost you around €115 net (in the 37% bracket).
There are two ways.
a fixed amount for five years
You commit to giving a fixed amount for five years. With our ANBI status, your full gift is deductible from income tax, with no threshold or ceiling. No notary needed, just a simple agreement.
€200 a year → around €115 net (in the 37% bracket), or as little as €96 in the highest bracket. You give more, it costs you less.
You commit to a fixed amount for five years. Not as a lump sum, but spread out: your first payment this year, and the same amount each of the next four years.
Child not at school for another five years? No problem. Say your child is in year 6: spread the amount you'd give anyway over five years, and it stays deductible.
Arrange your periodic gift via our form. You fill in a few details online and immediately receive a completed donation agreement (PDF) by email. Print it, sign it by hand, and email it to info@gelukkigeklas.nl. We'll sign it too and send your copy back. You'll need it for your tax return.
from your business
Do you own a BV (Dutch limited company)? With our ANBI status, gifts are deductible from corporate income tax (up to the legal limits). For director-shareholders, this is often more advantageous than giving privately.
The BV donates €1,000 to the foundation. Thanks to the deduction, the BV pays less corporate tax. The net cost to the BV ends up below €1,000.
Simple: the BV transfers the gift directly to the foundation and records it in the accounts and corporate tax return.
