Donate to dirty work

Support from companies is very important for our work to improve and maintain the well-being of Finnish waterways. Companies can support the Keep the Archipelago Tidy Association with a one-time donation or by engaging in broader collaboration with the Association.

Make a one-time company donation

Your one-time donation can be directed to our general activities or to a specific area (Archipelago Sea, Gulf of Bothnia, Saimaa, Päijänne, Pirkanmaa or Eastern Gulf of Finland). A company donation can also be allocated to maintain or develop a specific Roope service.

Companies can make a one-time donation directly to the Association’s bank account or ask the Association to invoice them for the donation amount.

Account number: FI42 6601 0010 5173 99 (Ålandsbanken).
Please enter your company name and donation as the payment reference.

You can order an invoice for your donation by sending an inquiry to info@pssry.fi.

In accordance with your wishes, the legacy donation can be allocated to environmental work carried out in a particular waterway area. As a non-profit association, the Association does not have to pay taxes on legacy donations.

Brief note about drawing up a will

Drawing up a will is one way to ensure that your wishes are realised. Your values will live on through an association or organisation that you list as one of your beneficiaries. If you have not drawn up a will, your estate will be divided according to the legal line of inheritance. If you have no legal heirs, your estate will be surrendered to the State.

It is not generally difficult to draw up a will, but it must meet the specifications stipulated by law in order to be legally valid. You can draw up a legal will and ask two competent persons to act as witnesses. A close relative or spouse of the individual who draws up the will or a beneficiary cannot serve as a witness. We recommend drawing up your will with the help of a lawyer to ensure that its legal effects are as intended and that it meets the form requirements.

Even a small legacy donation goes a long way to support the well-being of Finland’s waterways.

If you have any questions regarding wills and legacy donations, contact Anne Ala-Pöllänen, Head of Fundraising.
