Dear GROW|FOR|IT members and donors.
Thanks to your contributions, your memberships, and to SKAT’s handling of our application, we have achieved the approval according to the Danish Tax Assessment Act § 8A.
§8A is the clause in the act that grants tax reduction for donations to organisations and associations that work for the common good. This means that now substantial donations towards balancing of CO2 emission can be deducted from income just like donations to other charitable associations. The above applies to Danish taxpayers only; other national exemptions may apply in other countries.

Kære medlemmer og sponsorer af GROW|FOR|IT. Takket være Jeres bidrag, Jeres medlemskab og SKATs behandling af vores ansøgning, er vi blevet godkendt i henhold til Ligningslovens § 8A.
§8A er den regel i ligningsloven, der kan give skattefradrag for donationer til organisationer og foreninger med et almennyttigt formål. Dette betyder, at større donationer til balancering af CO2-udledning nu kan fradrages på samme måde som donationer til andre velgørende foreninger.
I 2018 vil vi få det arrangeret sådan, at donationer betalt gennem MobilePay automatisk bliver indberettet til SKAT. Vi skal lige have sat systemet op med MobilePay. Dette kræver at vi optræder på SKATS opdaterede liste som udgives midt i januar 2018. Så tøv en kende med flere donationer – har du allerede doneret i 2018 finder vi naturligvis en løsning på dette.

Karen and Svend Thomsen of 90 and 89 years, respectively, have decided to give their grandchildren a lifelong CO₂ balancing through reforestation. The trees will through their growth capture the amount of CO₂ which their grandchildren have emitted and will emit, until the green energy transition is a fact.
So, now Vanessa, Fiona, Benedikte, Andreas, and Konstantin can continue their lives knowing that their grandparents have balanced their CO₂ emission, until we are free of the fossil era.
GROW|FOR|IT thank Karen and Svend for the fine idea of grandparents buying lifelong CO₂ balance for their grandchildren.

Karen og Svend Thomsen på henholdsvis 90 og 89 år har bestemt sig for at deres børnebørn skal opnå livslang CO₂-balance ved at få plantet træer, som gennem deres vækst vil opsuge den mængde CO₂, som disse børnebørn har udledt, eller kommer til at udlede, indtil den grønne omstilling er færdig.
Så nu kan Vanessa, Fiona, Benedikte, Andreas og Konstantin fortsætte deres liv vel vidende, at deres bedsteforældre nu har balanceret deres CO₂ -udledning, indtil vi er kommet helt fri af den fossile æras tid.
GROW|FOR|IT takker for den gode idé med, at bedsteforældre køber deres børnebørn livslang CO₂-balance.

Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern has set an ambitious goal for the country in the effort to reduce global warming.
New Zealand plans to use reforestation as a means to remove some of the large amounts of CO2 emitted to the atmosphere. Under the “1 Billion Trees Programme” prime minister Ardern’s government promises to plant 100 million trees every year for ten years. The government wants New Zealand to achieve zero emmissions by 2050.
New Zealand is leading the way for the rest of us with it’s grand tree planting plan!
