We are excited to share an important milestone for Restore the Legacy! As of January 1, 2025, we have officially been granted ANBI status (Algemeen Nut Beogende Instelling) by the Dutch tax authorities. This designation affirms our commitment to serving the public good and enhances our ability to make a lasting impact.
What is ANBI Status?
ANBI status is granted to organizations that are dedicated to the public benefit. It is a recognition from the Dutch government that ensures transparency, accountability, and alignment with charitable purposes. Organizations with ANBI status must meet strict criteria regarding governance, spending, and mission-driven activities.
Why is This Important for Restore the Legacy?
Achieving ANBI status reinforces our mission and allows us to operate with greater financial efficiency. It demonstrates our dedication to transparency and ensures that our resources are used effectively to restore and preserve historical and cultural heritage. With this status, we can grow our initiatives, collaborate more effectively, and make a more significant difference.
What Are the Benefits for Our Donors?
For our valued supporters, ANBI status comes with significant financial advantages:
- Tax Benefits: Donations made to Restore the Legacy may be tax-deductible for Dutch taxpayers, allowing you to contribute while also benefiting from potential tax reductions.
- No Gift or Inheritance Tax: Any gifts or inheritances we receive are exempt from Dutch gift or inheritance tax, meaning 100% of your contributions go directly toward our mission.
- Transparency & Trust: As an ANBI organization, we adhere to strict reporting and governance standards, ensuring that your donations are used responsibly and effectively.
This is a significant achievement for us, and we are grateful for your ongoing support. Your generosity and commitment make it possible for us to continue preserving nature- and cultural heritage for future generations.
If you have any questions about what this means for you as a donor or how you can support our mission, feel free to reach out to us!
Thank you for being part of this journey with us.
