Vereniging Mostar Jeugd Nederland
Frequently asked questions
Answers to the questions donors ask us most about giving to Vereniging Mostar Jeugd Nederland.
Donating
Which organisation am I giving to?
Mostar Jeugd consists of two organisations: Mostar Jeugd België - Mostar Jeunesse Belgique vzw in Belgium and Vereniging Mostar Jeugd Nederland in the Netherlands. On your first visit you choose which one you give to; on this page that is Vereniging Mostar Jeugd Nederland. Each keeps its own books, so your gift goes entirely to the organisation you chose. You can switch at any time with the flag button at the top.
What is my donation spent on?
You choose the cause yourself: general support (where it is needed most), our departments (Mostar Scouting, Education, Arts, Sports and Values), zakat or fitra. If you choose several causes, each amount is booked separately to the cause you chose.
What is the difference between a monthly and a one-time donation?
With a monthly donation you automatically give the same amount every month until you stop. It helps us plan our activities ahead. A one-time donation is given once, and you can split it over several causes.
Is there a minimum amount?
A donation is at least 1 euro, in whole euros. For fitra the minimum is 10 euros.
Can I give my zakat or fitra through this website?
Yes. Choose zakat or fitra as the cause of a one-time donation and enter the amount. We book these amounts separately from other gifts.
Can I also donate without this website?
Yes, for example by bank transfer or in cash. Send us an e-mail at info@mostarjeugd.com and we will help you.
Go to our contact details →Payment and security
How can I pay?
You pay on the secure payment page of our payment provider, for example with iDEAL or a payment card. The payment page shows which methods are available.
Is donating through this website safe?
Yes. The website uses an encrypted connection, and your payment details are processed only by our licensed payment provider, which complies with the strict PCI DSS standard. We never see your card or account number.
My payment failed or I cancelled it. What now?
Then nothing has been charged and you can simply try again. If money was taken but you received no confirmation, send us an e-mail with the date and the amount.
After your donation
Will I get a confirmation?
Yes. Right after paying you see your donation number on screen, and within a few minutes you receive a donation confirmation by e-mail. Nothing arrived? Please also check your spam folder.
How do I stop or change my monthly donation?
Send an e-mail to info@mostarjeugd.com with your name, the e-mail address you donate with and, if you have it, your donation number. We will then stop or pause your monthly donation; no further payments will be taken. To give a different amount, we stop the current one and you simply start a new one.
Can I get my donation back?
Contact us as soon as possible at info@mostarjeugd.com and include your donation number. We look at every request personally.
Tax and privacy
Is my gift tax-deductible?
Vereniging Mostar Jeugd Nederland has applied to the Dutch Tax Administration for ANBI (public benefit) status, but does not have it yet. Your gift is therefore not tax-deductible at the moment. You can still get a donation receipt: tick the box when you donate. As soon as ANBI status is granted, we will say so on this page.
What do you do with my data?
We use your data only to process your donation and to meet our legal obligations — never for marketing — and we never sell it.
