More attention for #PayrollGiving

 

June 25 2024

 

Good news that De Telegraaf is paying attention to hashtag #LoonGift! (Dutch for #PayrollGiving). "The amount that the Netherlands donates to charities has significantly dropped in recent years. Entrepreneur Sandra van Beest wants to make this easier and more attractive with The Social Handshake: directly and automatically via your pay slip with tax benefits." Additionally, Dutch papers like Dagblad van het Noorden and De Limburger have also published articles about our initiative.

"In England, £2 billion has already been donated via hashtag #PayrollGiving, while the concept was only launched in the Netherlands 3.5 years ago."

How great would it be if the Dutch Payroll giving became as big in the Netherlands as it is in England?

✅ That would mean 100% of donations go to charities (no costs for fundraisers) ✅ That would mean people can donate more while it costs less (due to tax benefits) ✅ And that would mean companies fully embrace employees who want to make a bigger impact (by offering LoonGift as an employee benefit).

We look forward to reaching more impact-driven companies to achieve this growth together with employees!
