Donations

For all Dutch tax payers you may be interested to know that you can claim back some of your donation to St. Vitus parish on your tax declaration.

The donations can be made to the following church account (stating “Gift” & year e.g. “2024”):

NL34 INGB 00 00 51 50 60 

t.n.v. Kerkbalans Vitus en Willibrord Hilversum

You can also make the financial contribution for the Church Balance 2024 via the QR code. You can choose the amount yourself. You scan the QR code below with the camera on your mobile phone. You will then arrive at a payment link from Rabobank. Here you can set the amount yourself and choose your bank. If you then click on the ‘Pay’ button, your banking app will open on your phone. There you can complete the transaction.

There are two ways by which you can donate to the church

1. Giving a one time donation to the above mentioned church bank account
2. A planned giving scheme over 5 years. For a fixed 5 year donation period the minimum donation is 1% and the maximum is 10 % of your annual income. The minimum donation amount is 60€.

For claiming tax benefit you can just make a copy of your bank donation and declare this on your annual tax declaration or using the tax declaration form for the planned giving scheme.

All contributions that you make to help the upkeep and work of the church would be most welcome. For more information please contact Kieran (email: internationalcommunity@vitus.nl ) or from the official Belastingdienst website.
