Since March of this year, we have been affiliated with the Donors’ Interests Foundation (Stichting Donateurs Belangen). We are currently in the spotlight on their website!

What the Donors’ Interests Foundation does for you as a donor
Charities, like ours, are indispensable. Without financial support, they cannot continue their work. The Donors’ Interests Foundation is an independent foundation that, as a (research) platform, shares information about the charity sector and individual charities with the giving public through free news gathering and based on press freedom. We strive for open, honest, and respectful fundraising and transparent accountability in the interest of donors.
They investigate and identify, together with donors, where things go wrong and where improvements can be made.
Targeted and effective fundraising and deployment of donations are very important to donors. Therefore, we actively participate in discussions, conduct research, identify malpractices and potential improvements in the interest of donors, scrutinize claims within the charity sector, and speak out when your donor interests are at stake. We offer free, privacy-friendly services and support to donors regarding giving to charities.
