Working with companies, foundations, and institutions.
We invite companies, foundations, and institutions that share our vision to work with us on improving the situation of children and young people in Iceland. Support can take the form of donations, in-kind contributions, or participation in specific joint projects.
Our independence is the cornerstone of the work. All collaboration therefore rests on clear terms: full transparency, and the organization's complete neutrality toward any other interests.
Visibility and recognition.
We greatly value the support that companies and foundations give the work. We make a point of accommodating our partners and giving them appropriate visibility across our channels.
The scope and form of that visibility is agreed with each partner and reflects the nature and scale of the collaboration. That way, support is recognized appropriately — on the website, in reports, or in other material — always on terms of transparency and neutrality.
Support scaled to revenue — the 1.5%–3% rule.
Legal entities that support our public-benefit work can use a generous tax deduction. It is a powerful way for companies to show social responsibility and make their contribution go further.
- General deduction: Companies may deduct donations from their tax base up to 1.5% of the year's operating revenue.
- Climate supplement: The allowance rises by another 1.5% where donations go to carbon offsetting — up to 3% of revenue in total.
- Legal basis: The right rests on Art. 31(2) of Act No. 90/2003 and Regulation No. 1300/2021.
Donations and in-kind support.
For full transparency, and to follow the rules of Skatturinn (Iceland Revenue and Customs), we divide support into two categories. Note that the tax deduction only applies where the donor receives no direct goods or services in return.
Tax-deductible
Direct donations that go to our core work or to specific analysis projects.
- One-time gifts or recurring monthly donations.
- Foundation grants and formal sponsorship agreements.
- Joint projects with a financial contribution.
Not tax-deductible
We equally welcome contributions in the form of professional services or equipment that lower the organization's operating costs. Skatturinn grants no deduction for this kind of support, but it is enormously important to us — and we provide appropriate visibility in return.
Examples: professional services (legal, design, accounting), equipment, software, facilities, or advertising space.
