Fundraising for MOTAS for Kids
Anyone can take action. Whether you organise something on your own, with your class, your sports club or your colleagues: your fundraiser helps children in Peru get a good start. Here is how to begin.
-
Come up with your idea
Do a sponsored run, organise a bake sale or ask for donations instead of presents for your birthday. Big or small, anything goes.
-
Register your fundraiser
Fill in the form. We will get in touch and brainstorm your fundraiser together.
-
Get your own fundraising page
After the brainstorm, we create your own fundraising page, with your story, your goal and a counter showing how much you have raised.
-
Raise money
Share your fundraising page with friends, family and colleagues. The proceeds go to our programmes for children in Peru.

Start your own fundraiser -
Hekker gave their gifts in a MOTAS bag
Together with Hekker, we did something special as a one-off. Hekker gave their gifts in a jute MOTAS bag. That way we gave two gifts at once: the staff received their present in our jute bag, and children in Peru received a similar jute bag filled with school supplies.

Frequently asked questions
Where does the money raised go?
All proceeds go to the MOTAS for Kids Foundation and are spent on our programmes for children in Peru: the Education programme and the Reconstruction programme. Your fundraising page shows how much has been raised.
Does it cost me anything to start a fundraiser?
No. The brainstorm, your own fundraising page and our help are free.
Can I also collect cash?
Yes. Afterwards, transfer the amount to NL70 ABNA 0152 6503 34 in the name of Stichting MOTAS for Kids and mention the name of your fundraiser. We will then add it to the total on your fundraising page.
May I use the MOTAS for Kids logo?
Yes, by arrangement. After the brainstorm, we agree together on how you use the logo, so everyone can see that your fundraiser is part of our work.
What if I do not reach my goal?
No problem. Every euro counts and everything you raise goes to the children. You can also adjust your goal in consultation with us.
Is a gift to my fundraiser tax-deductible?
Not yet. We are working towards ANBI status in the Netherlands. Once we have it, gifts can be deducted from tax under certain conditions. We will announce it on our website.
Do I need a permit?
Usually not for a fundraiser among friends, at school or at work. If you want to collect money in the street or door to door, you often need permission from your local council. Always check this with your local council.
