Context

One of the initiatives to which the Foundation contributes is the Transnational Giving Europe Network

The TGE network enables European individual and corporate donors to make cross-border donations to the non-profit organizations they wish to support across Europe and to benefit from tax advantages available in their country of residence in a secured legal and fiscal framework.

Thanks to its strong member partnership and its collaboration with other advocacy entities in Europe, Transnational Giving Europe aims at accelerating the creation of a single market for philanthropy, through activities such as digital development, the search for new partner foundations and the provision of practical information on philanthropy in Europe.
