Make a donation
Digestive tract diseases suffer from a low level of public awareness and are sometimes even a taboo subject: nevertheless, they affect a significant proportion of Western populations and can have sometimes dramatic consequences.
Research on these themes is progressing rapidly but there is still a significant lack of funding.
By making a donation to DigestScience, you can help progress research work that is essential for the health of thousands of patients.
Your donation will also help better understand the impact of our diet on our health.
Donations and tax relief
For individual taxpayers registered in France:
- Making a donation to DigestScience enables you to deduct 66% of the amount (up to a maximum of 20% of your taxable income). If this ceiling is exceeded, the excess can be carried over into the following 5 years.
In fact, a 50-euro donation only costs you 17 euros after tax deduction!
- If you are subject to French wealth tax (ISF), you can claim a tax reduction corresponding to 75% of the donation (in cash or listed company shares), up to a limit of 50,000 euros per year. This tax reduction cannot be combined with relief on other taxes.
- Life assurance: you can designate DigestScience as the primary beneficiary or default beneficiary (in the latter case, if the other beneficiaries of your life assurance policy are deceased or cannot be found, you will ensure that the money benefits DigestScience).
- Donations made as part of an inheritance: an heir can donate cash, bonds or shares received from the deceased person. He/she will benefit from inheritance tax relief on the net value of his/her share of the inheritance.
- Donations made under a will: these are fully exonerated from inheritance tax.
For corporate taxpayers registered in France:
A corporate donation makes your company eligible for deduction of 60% of the amount (up to 0.5% of its turnover). Donations in excess of this ceiling can be carried over to claim tax relief in the following five financial years.
In all cases, DigestScience will provide a receipt to send in
with your tax return.
How the donations are used
