We appreciate your support!
We believe in the power of music, especially percussion, to bridge diverse cultures and backgrounds. Picture us as a vibrant creative hub where interdisciplinary projects thrive with percussion at the core.
Percussion at the highest level: We perform percussion at the highest level and develop projects centered around this art form. Through percussion, we connect people from diverse cultures, ages, and backgrounds. Our goal is to inspire and raise awareness on relevant themes.
Impact of your donation: Previous donations have enabled us to build an extensive collection of thousands of percussion instruments, including the world's largest percussion tower (5 meters high). We use these instruments in our projects and make them available to young musicians for practice and performances.
Direct allocation: All donations go directly to our projects. As a donor, you can also choose to support a specific project. One example is our work in international communities, where we perform in places like community centers, asylum seekers' centers, and outdoor parks.
Why support Combined Creatives?
Our foundation holds the Cultural ANBI status, offering various tax benefits for donors.

Our Future Plans
We've got big plans for the future, focusing on:
Free Maker Culture: Supporting young and mid-career creators.
Stage Productions: Producing top-level performances at various locations.
Online Platform: A platform for the public, percussionists, musicians, and enthusiasts to learn about our projects.
Under the leadership of Dominique Vleeshouwers (DOMNIQ), we work towards our mission to connect people through percussion. We believe that drums and rhythms are deeply rooted in many cultures and serve as a key to cultural connection.

How much can you deduct?
One-time donations: The threshold for regular donations is 1% of your threshold income with a minimum of €60 and a maximum of 10% of your threshold income. You can deduct any amount exceeding this threshold.
Periodic donations: For periodic donations, there is no minimum or maximum amount, and these are fully deductible without a threshold. You need a Periodic Donations Agreement from the Tax Authorities.
Extra tax advantage for donations to cultural ANBIs: For donations to cultural ANBIs, you can increase your donation by 25% on your income tax return, with a maximum increase of €1,250.
Example for Clarity:
Donate €100 to a cultural ANBI:
Enhanced deductible amount: €100 + 25% = €125
For companies: Donations from a BV (private limited company) are fully deductible without a threshold. However, the donation deduction cannot exceed 50% of the profit and must be under €100,000.
