Your donation and tax benefits
The M•Fonds is recognised by the Dutch Tax Authority as an ANBI (Public Benefit Organisation) and is considered a cultural charity. This means that your donation can be deducted from your income tax or corporate tax return, without taking into account the value of the privileges you receive.
Thanks to the *Geefwet* (Dutch Donation Act), you benefit from additional advantages: for your tax return, you can temporarily increase the first €5,000 of your donation by 25%. The tax authorities allow you to deduct 25% more than you have donated, with a maximum cap of €1,250. Any amount donated to the M•Fonds above the initial €5,000 is also fully deductible.
You can make the most of these benefits by making a donation over a period of five years, in equal annual instalments. For periodic donations, you can enter into a private agreement with the M•Fonds.
The 125% multiplier applies exclusively to donations made to cultural ANBIs. The exact amount of your donation deduction and the extent of your benefit will depend on your specific situation.
