Transnational Giving Europe

Thanks to the Transnational Giving Europe (TGE) network, coordinated by the King Baudouin Foundation, a donor in Belgium (an individual, business or organisation) can support a project of general interest in another European country while also benefitting from a tax advantage in Belgium.

Inversely, the TGE network also enables organisations and associations in Belgium to collect donations made in other European countries. Donations made by European donors (whether individuals, businesses or organisations) are tax deductible, in line with the legislation of the countries concerned.

In order to simplify cross-border donations even more and also boost European philanthropy, donations made through the TGE network can also be made through an online donations platform. Thanks to this simple-to-use digital solution, individuals and businesses have the option of making donations to the causes and organisations of their choice in Europe, while also benefitting from the tax advantages offered in their country of residence as well as within a secure legal and fiscal framework.
