Annual reports and Financial accounts

The Future For Nature Foundation has been designated a Public Benefit Organisation (ANBI status) by the Dutch Tax Office (Belastingdienst). This means that your donations to our foundation can be fully or partially deducted from your Dutch income tax or corporate income tax. We also do not have to pay taxes on your donations or donations that we make to third parties. Your contribution directly benefits nature conservation!

Funds received by the Foundation are spent on:

  • Three annual prizes of €50,000 for promising young conservationists
  • Organising the annual Future For Nature Award Ceremony
  • Publications and other communications on Future For Nature and the work of our current and previous winners
  • FFN Family FRONT support: finance, research, outreach, networking, and training for our laureates
  • A small percentage of the funds is used for administration and organisation purposes (currently <7%)

The members of the Future For Nature Board receive no financial rewards for their Future For Nature activities. Future For Nature has a small team of 2.8 Full Time Equivalents (fte). An annual budget and financial account can be found below, as well as the Annual Report detailing the activities of the Foundation.

The annual accounts are drawn up and approved by an accountant.
