More about our donation needs:

Your support helps!

It helps promote climate-resilient mixed broad­leaf forests, an improved ground­water recharge rate, biodi­ver­sity and a sustainable society.

Regular donations give the associa­tion planning security, the oppor­tu­nity to tackle even large environ­mental protec­tion projects and to build up specia­list staff for this purpose. Important for good engage­ment for forest and water.

Especi­ally for larger donations, we ask you to transfer your donation directly, and thus free of fees for us.

For a donation by bank transfer, please use our donation account at

Please state „Spende“ as the payment reference or the corre­spon­ding project you would like to support, as well as your address for the donation receipt. Thank you for your support!

With your donation, you support in accordance with our association’s purpose the planting of broad­leaf trees in order to promote mixed broad­leaf forests, ground­water recharge, biodi­ver­sity and a sustainable society. With your donation, we select suitable damaged areas, conclude agree­ments with landow­ners to ensure the ecolo­gical objec­tives, prepare the areas, order the planting material, plant, provide wildlife protec­tion, carry out monito­ring of the areas, involve young and old as well as ecology and economy in our environ­mental protec­tion actions, create aware­ness through environ­mental educa­tion, promote dialogue between a wide range of interest groups, pay salaries and carry out the legally required adminis­tra­tive work. We appre­ciate every donation. If you dedicate your contri­bu­tion to a specific purpose, we will endea­vour to use it accor­dingly. Should this no longer be possible or neces­sary, your donation will go to other statu­tory purposes of the associa­tion Trink­was­ser­wald e.V. We thank you since­rely for your under­stan­ding.

Tax-deduc­tible donations

Donations to Trink­was­ser­wald e.V. are tax-deduc­tible.
All cash and in-kind donations to the non-profit environ­mental protec­tion associa­tion Trink­was­ser­wald e.V. are tax-deduc­tible under Section 10b of the Income Tax Act, up to the amount eligible for donation deduc­tions.
Trink­was­ser­wald e.V. is recog­nised as a non-profit organi­sa­tion by the Hamburg Nord tax office.

Cash and in-kind donations from compa­nies to Trink­was­ser­wald e.V. can be claimed as special expenses at the tax office up to 20 per cent of total income or up to 4 per mille of total turnover plus the wages and salaries paid in the calendar year, and can there­fore be deducted from tax.

Monetary and in-kind donations of up to a value of 300 euros can be submitted to the tax office without a donation receipt and by bank state­ment. For this simpli­fied donation receipt (§ 50 para. 4 EStDV), an additional document showing details of the recipient of the donation must also be enclosed.

This confirms that the cash or in-kind donation is used for a tax-privi­leged purpose within the meaning of §§ 51 ff. AO.
