Support Foundation Vriendenconcerten A lasting smile on your face and a happy feeling. You come home after a night out, with friends, and you still feel the joy of it... That is the feeling we would like to give you with our concerts. Pamela, the founder of Vriendenconcerten, along with other top artists and rising stars, whose heart and soul are in the music. We want to touch you with our performances. Unfortunately, almost everything has been turned upside down due to the pandemic. With a lot of effort we were able to put on most of the concerts last season, but Foundation Vriendenconcerten has suffered substantially from the Corona crisis. Very little of the substantial amount that the Ministry of Education, Culture and Science has released for Corona emergency support for the creative sector ends up with self-employed people, series and/or musicians. Unfortunately, everything and everyone who falls outside the subsidy system has seen little or nothing of the support to this sector or has been able to benefit from it. We can therefore really use financial aid to guarantee the survival and quality of the series. As a concert-goer to the Vriendenconcerten and a music lover you could contribute by becoming a Friend or Donor of the Foundation. We would be very grateful if you would like to support us financially, so that we can continue our work and maintain quality. When you contribute to the Foundation Vriendenconcerten, you sustain the well being of our organization while showing your appreciation for the arts as well as the artists. And YOUR DONATION IS FULLY TAX DEDUCTIBLE. Every financial contribution is fully used to pay the musicians and to continue to offer you a great program of indisputable excellence. We can really use your help! We very much appreciate your support! The Board of Vriendenconcerten Foundation Become a Friend of us Below are a few of the Foundation’s many achievements in recent years:
How to Become a Friend *Valid for all members of a family Exclusive benefits for Friends
*During this event, there will be ample opportunity to chat with each other while enjoying a snack and drink and perhaps a small musical intermezzo by Pamela and friends. Become our Sponsor Despite the fact that different funds show a lot of sympathy towards our series, the aftermath of budgetary cuts by the government and the effects of Covid 19 makes it difficult to secure fundings for a smaller top series that we are. If we have several sponsors who support us annually, it provides for continuity. The most assistance comes, of course, from donations over multiple years, but even the smallest gifts are very appreciated! Foundation Vriendenconcerten is registered as a cultural ANBI. Thanks to the status of a cultural ANBI, you can benefit from extra tax deductions. A special Dutch tax law called “Geefwet” allows you, when filing a tax return, to increase your donation with a “cultural multiplier” of 25% (subject to certain conditions). In other words, you can deduct 125% from your tax return. For more information, please see the Tax Office website under “Culturele ANBI” Will you help us?
