Remuneration policy

The board members of the foundation are volunteers and receive no remuneration, attendance fees or other compensation for their work. They are only reimbursed for actual expenses incurred on behalf of the foundation, such as materials or travel costs, on the basis of receipts and with approval from another board member. The foundation has no employees, and any future change to this policy would be decided by the board, stay within the ANBI rules and be published on the website.

Objective

The foundation aims to be a public benefit organisation (algemeen nut beogende instelling) as referred to in Article 5b of the General Tax Act (Algemene wet inzake rijksbelastingen), or any provision replacing it, and to be designated as such by the Dutch Tax and Customs Administration, and its objects are:

a. to promote and pursue the public interest, and more specifically to raise funds for projects and activities for the benefit of the pupils enrolled at the Dongeschool, which forms part of the Stichting openbaar onderwijs aan de Amstel (the "Dongeschool"), and which enrich the pupils' educational experience, in the broadest sense of the word; and

b. to do everything that is related to, or may be conducive to, the matters set out under a., in the broadest sense.

Policy plan (main points)

Stichting Vrienden van de Dongeschool is a parent-run foundation that raises voluntary donations, both one-off and periodic, to fund extras for the Dongeschool in Amsterdam that fall outside the school's regular budget and the voluntary parental contribution, such as culture, nature, technology, sport, digital skills, the schoolyard and equal opportunities. All spending benefits a whole class, year group or the entire school, never individual pupils, and projects are selected together with the school management against clear criteria, while the foundation always follows the City of Amsterdam's rules on parental contributions so that the school's municipal subsidies are never put at risk. The board is unpaid, overhead is kept to a minimum, no more reserves are held than needed, and the foundation publishes an annual activity report and financial statement on its website in line with its ANBI obligations.

What does ANBI status mean for you?

The Friends of the Dongeschool foundation is registered by the Dutch tax authorities as an ANBI (a public benefit organisation), effective 14 August 2026. This means gifts to the foundation are deductible from Dutch income tax.

Regular gift

A one-off gift, or a gift without a written agreement. You can only deduct the part above the threshold: 1% of your threshold income, with a minimum of € 60. The maximum is 10% of your threshold income.

Periodic gift

You agree in writing to give the same amount every year for at least five years. Then there is no threshold: your whole gift is deductible.

Example: someone with a threshold income of € 60,000. The threshold for regular gifts is then 1% = € 600.

Your giftDeductible with regular giftDeductible with periodic gift
€ 100 per year€ 0€ 100
€ 200 per year€ 0€ 200
€ 1,000 per year€ 400€ 1,000

The amounts in the table are what you may deduct, not what you get back. How much tax you get back depends on your tax rate. If you have a tax partner, your gifts and incomes are combined. Rules for 2026; this is not tax advice.

Important: ANBI status

We are registered as an ANBI by the Dutch tax authorities. This applies from 14 August 2026. You can always check this yourself in the ANBI register of the Dutch tax authorities (RSIN 869894407). Dutch tax authorities: check the ANBI status of an organisation (in Dutch) →
