Yes, investing should be fun\u2026 even if it doesn\u2019t benefit you financially. We believe in investing in others, simply to make life a little brighter. And we hope it brings you a bit of joy too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
If the idea of investing already annoys you\u2026 please don\u2019t do it! Just treat yourself to a delicious cake and celebrate life. Yes, you deserve to celebrate \ud83d\ude09 But\u2026 if our work gives you goosebumps, oh man\u2026 your donation\u2014gold or diamonds\u2014are more than welcome \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Here\u2019s what\u2019s good to know: we keep our overhead as low as possible. No one is on the payroll, but we do have fixed costs like hosting, a business phone number, Chamber of Commerce registration, and a Mollie account. A small percentage of all donations goes toward covering this overhead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
So far, travel expenses have mostly been self-funded, as have most of our initiatives. Our founder is also starting a business in Pakistan, which means many costs fall under the business side. But we also need to be transparent with the tax authorities, since some costs are the foundation\u2019s responsibility. Therefore, if a trip has separate funding, part of the expenses may be reimbursed. And yes, we stay in safe hotels and don\u2019t fly business class (unless we cover it ourselves).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The foundation has an exceptionally skilled treasurer, a Supervisory Board for oversight, and a transparent annual report. Still getting goosebumps? Go ahead\u2014choose a program that makes your heart race. Or just invest in the foundation\u2014we have plenty of plans!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Good to know: donations to stOne international are tax-deductible. We\u2019ve held ANBI status since January 2024.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Thank you for your trust!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
