ANBI
Scala is part of the Tapas Theater foundation. The Tapas Theater Foundation is a cultural ANBI (Public Benefit Organization). An institution can only be an ANBI if it is almost entirely committed to the public interest. This ANBI status makes a donation to us extra affordable: your donation is tax-deductible and is received tax-free by the Tapas Theater Foundation, so 100% of the amount benefits our activities.
