☑︎ For donors, our donation systems confer:
• Guarantee and security: our donation system is approved and managed by the ‘King Baudouin Foundation’ (an independent Belgian public interest foundation), working with the ‘Transnational Giving Europe’ network. You can choose to make a one-time or monthly gift, which you pay directly to the accounts we have with the Foundations.
• Certainty on the allocation of our funds.
Our projects are approved and evaluated by our founders and independent foundations to serve our financial literacy and research objectives, such as:
– Financial education initiatives; production of informative material for investors;
– Research and advocacy work, such as the critical issue of Pension adequacy and financial repression of European citizens.
• Tax receipt certificate: the donation can be returned in part as a tax benefit (for certain countries*).
Individuals and companies benefit from tax advantages in their country of residence – for example:
‣ For Belgian residents, donations of 40€ or more are eligible for an income tax reduction of 45% on the amount given.
‣ For French residents, individuals are granted 66% of income tax reduction on the amount given (up to 20% of taxable income), and corporations benefit to up to a 60% reduction.
The donor automatically receives a tax receipt certificate (valid for eligible countries) from the King Baudouin Foundation, or from the Fondation de France.
