Donations with Tax Deduction: How Multinational Corporations Can Generate Global Impact by Supporting Ecobraz

The Responsibility of Multinationals

Multinationals operate under a global spotlight. Consumers, shareholders, regulators, and the international press scrutinize every action. In an increasingly connected world, the pressure for real ESG commitments (Environmental, Social, and Governance) is stronger than ever.

In Brazil, one of the greatest opportunities for companies to demonstrate leadership lies in the allocation of corporate income tax.

Ecobraz: The Strategic Partner

Ecobraz Emigre is officially recognized as both an OSCIP (Public Interest Civil Society Organization) and a Public Interest Entity.

This recognition allows companies to redirect up to 2% of their income tax due directly to Ecobraz projects, with no additional cost.

What makes Ecobraz unique? It is the largest NGO in the world dedicated to e-waste recycling and digital inclusion. Its projects deliver concrete, documented, and scalable impact across Brazil.

For multinational corporations, supporting Ecobraz is not just a local action — it resonates globally in sustainability reports, strengthening commitments to the UN Global Compact, the SDGs (Sustainable Development Goals), and international investors.

Why Multinationals Should Support Ecobraz

1. Global Scale, Local Action – align global ESG commitments with measurable local projects.

2. Compliance and Documentation – all processes are certified, providing legal and accounting assurance.

3. International Visibility – supporting the world’s largest e-waste recycling NGO builds a strong global narrative.

4. Zero Risk, Zero Cost – the amount is deducted from taxes already due.

5. Social Transformation – communities gain digital access, bridging the gap of inequality.

The Burden of Corporate E-Waste

Multinationals operating in Brazil handle vast amounts of IT and telecom equipment. Regular upgrades generate tons of obsolete electronics. Without proper disposal, these materials pose:

• Environmental risks – contamination from heavy metals and irreversible pollution.

• Legal risks – environmental fines and regulatory lawsuits.

• Reputational risks – global-scale crises damaging trust and brand value.

By entrusting Ecobraz with e-waste, corporations turn liabilities into sustainable assets.

Practical Example

A multinational with R$ 50 million in income tax due can allocate R$ 1 million to Ecobraz.

Instead of being absorbed into the public budget, this amount becomes:

• nationwide operations for e-waste collection and recycling;

• detailed impact reports with ESG metrics for global disclosure;

• digital inclusion centers that transform entire communities;

• positioning as a leader in socio-environmental responsibility in Brazil.

Stories of Transformation

A multinational in the financial sector redirected part of its tax to Ecobraz and was able to include a dedicated section in its global sustainability report, with measurable social and environmental outcomes in Brazil. Stakeholders worldwide praised this as concrete proof of ESG commitment.

Another multinational in the automotive sector reduced legal risks by ensuring compliant disposal of obsolete IT equipment, while also gaining recognition in global supplier evaluations.

These cases highlight how supporting Ecobraz delivers fiscal, legal, and reputational advantages simultaneously.

Conclusion

Multinational corporations carry the responsibility of leading the ESG agenda. In Brazil, supporting Ecobraz with part of their corporate income tax is one of the smartest ways to transform fiscal obligations into real positive impact.

Ecobraz provides the scale, transparency, and credibility required for global companies to combine sustainability, social inclusion, and international reputation in a single action.
