Thank you for your support.
If you wish to donate but don’t care about claiming on your taxes, we have a form for direct donations here. Donating directly avoids a bit of fuss for both Forbidden Colours and ourselves.
If you are donating from outside the Netherlands, know that we are a Dutch foundation. So claiming your donation on your taxes requires “fiscal wrapping”. An organization that is registered in many countries takes the money on our behalf and turns it over to us. This relieves us of the considerable administrative burden of being a legal entity in many places, at the expense of a slightly more complex process for donating. We are grateful to Forbidden Colours, who graciously has agreed to perform this service for us at no cost. They are registered in the USA as a 501(c)3 organization.
To donate to us in a way you can claim on US taxes:
- Make your donation to Forbidden Colours using this page. This page is hosted on every.org, a site that provides donation acceptance services for many organizations, including Forbidden Colours. In the “Add a note for Forbidden Colours” please put “for Stichting Trans Rescue Foundation”.
- Please send an email to annie@transrescue.org to let us know about the donation. This is needed to track the donation from Forbidden Colours to us.
Forbidden Colours in turn uses Myriad.org to in turn wrap them, so the donation to Forbidden Colours appears as Myriad USA to the IRS. The Employer Identification Number (EIN) or tax number for Myriad USA is 58-2277856.
Thank you for supporting our passengers.
Sincerely,
Anne Ogborn
