Donor advised fund

A donor advised fund is a nice way to make a difference for a cause that matters to you. You set up a fund within the Iona Stichting and give it its own name.

Together, we decide how the money will be used, so your contribution goes to the cause you care about. This can be during your lifetime or as a legacy. We manage the fund and ensure that the donations are used according to the agreements made. This way, you can contribute in a personal and lasting way without having to set up a separate foundation yourself.

Please note:

whether you get a tax deduction for a donation doesn’t depend on your nationality, but on whether they pay income tax in The Netherlands.

That means, for example:

• A Dutch person who doesn’t pay Dutch income tax usually isn’t eligible for a donation deduction.
• A foreigner who does pay Dutch income tax can take advantage of the donation deduction under the same conditions as a Dutch person.
