Sacha Huagra operates through two sister entities: Stichting Sacha Huagra Foundation (Netherlands), a registered ANBI public-benefit organization, and Fundación Sacha Huagra Colombia, a non-profit recognized by DIAN. Both branches serve the same purpose—protecting the Mountain Tapir and its forest neighbors through community-led conservation. For administrative and transparency reasons, we maintain two legal entities, but we plan and report as one program. Donations can be made to either branch; tax treatment follows the donor’s jurisdiction, and funds are allocated to agreed project budgets and publicly reported.

The Sacha Huagra Foundation is ANBI-recognized.

An ANBI (= Algemeen nut beogende instelling) is Dutch for PBO or Public Benefit Organisation. An institution can be qualified as a PBO when at least 90% of the institutions efforts are focused on the general good. Natural and legal persons making donations to a PBO may deduct their gifts from their Dutch income tax or corporate income tax.

As a PBO we must meet the conditions as put by the Tax and Customs Administration of the Netherlands. One of the conditions is the publication of the yearly figures.
