Mission
The purpose of the foundation is to obtain and keep a flock of sheep in order to restore and preserve the traditional sheep grazing on the moors in Epe, Heerde and surroundings in its old luster, to make the landscape more attractive and to counteract the impoverishment of the moors still present by this grazing, without the aim of any profit.
De stichting heeft ten doel het verkrijgen en het houden van een kudde schapen teneinde daardoor de traditionele schapenbeweiding op de heide in Epe, Heerde en omgeving in haar oude luister te herstellen en te behouden, ten aanzien van het landschap attractiever te maken en de verarming van de nog aanwezige heidevelden door deze beweiding tegen te gaan, zonder dat enig winstbejag wordt beoogd.

Stichting Schaapskudde Epe-Heerde is a nonprofit organisation with the position HELD, KVK 41038032 Tax/RSIN number: 002844321 Stichting Schaapskudde Epe-Heerde is classified as an environment organization registered in Netherlands. The organization was founded in 1956.
Stichting Schaapskudde Epe-Heerde is registered in the Netherlands. Stichting Schaapskudde Epe-Heerde has ANBI (Algemeen Nut Beogende Instelling) status, so donations are tax-deductible. You can deduct gifts that exceed 1% of your threshold income (minimum 60 euros). Periodic gifts (committed for 5+ years) are fully deductible without threshold.
Stichting Schaapskudde Epe-Heerde is a Dutch foundation (stichting) - the most common legal form for charities and public-benefit organisations in the Netherlands. A stichting has no members, is governed by a board, and is established by notarial deed for a specific purpose. It is the only Dutch legal form that can hold ANBI (public-benefit) status without member oversight. There are about 250,000 stichtingen on file at the Dutch Chamber of Commerce (KvK), of which roughly 50,000 hold ANBI status with the Belastingdienst. It is registered with the Kamer van Koophandel (KvK), the Dutch Chamber of Commerce, with RSIN 002844321.
You can verify Stichting Schaapskudde Epe-Heerde's legal status in three ways. First, look up the RSIN directly on the Belastingdienst ANBI register: https://www.belastingdienst.nl/wps/wcm/connect/nl/aftrek-en-kortingen/content/anbi-status-controleren and enter 002844321. The result page confirms whether the organisation currently holds ANBI status - a prerequisite for tax-deductible donations in the Netherlands. Second, search the Kamer van Koophandel public registry at https://www.kvk.nl/zoeken/ - the KvK record shows the legal form (Stichting / Vereniging / Coöperatie), registered address, board composition (where disclosed), and the date of incorporation. Third, every ANBI is legally required by the publicatieplicht to publish on its own website: the policy plan, financial statements, an overview of activities, board composition, and remuneration policy. A working ANBI page with current financials is the strongest signal of legitimacy beyond the registry. If all three sources agree on name, address and ANBI status, the organisation is legitimate.
You can donate to Stichting Schaapskudde Epe-Heerde directly through its donation page (https://www.schaapskudde-epe-heerde.nl/direct-doneren/). Dutch charities typically accept iDEAL (the standard Dutch online-banking payment method), Tikkie payment requests, Bancontact for cross-border donors, SEPA bank transfer to the organisation's IBAN (account numbers starting with NL), and online payment processors (Mollie, Stripe). Many larger Dutch charities use platforms like Geef.nl, GeefSamen, Kentaa, and Pifworld for online fundraising. International donors can give via SEPA (the Netherlands is in the eurozone, so intra-EU transfers are cheap), PayPal, or GlobalGiving. For donations to count as a 'periodieke gift' - fully tax-deductible without a threshold - a written agreement (overeenkomst periodieke gift) committing for at least five years is required. Always confirm the recipient's RSIN and ANBI status before sending funds intended for the tax deduction.
As an ANBI, Stichting Schaapskudde Epe-Heerde is legally required to publish the following information on its own website, free of charge and without a login (the 'publicatieplicht' obligation under Uitvoeringsregeling AWR 1994 art. 1a): the policy plan, an overview of the past year's activities, the financial statements (balance sheet, profit-and-loss, explanatory notes), board composition with names, and the remuneration policy for directors and key staff. Larger ANBIs (turnover above €50,000) must also publish a fuller financial report using the Belastingdienst's standard ANBI publication form. If you cannot find these documents on the organisation's website, that is a red flag worth raising with the board before donating.
Stichting Schaapskudde Epe-Heerde is based in Heerde, in Gelderland, the eastern province around Arnhem and Nijmegen. The Netherlands has 12 provinces. Many Dutch charities work province-wide or nationally, and ANBI status is granted at the national level - the organisation can solicit donations and issue fiscal-deductibility statements anywhere in the country.
