Make an online cross-border donation

Online TGE Platform

The TGE Network, in partnership with two of its beneficiaries FEDORA and Common Goal, and with the support of the Creative Europe programme of the European Union and  Swiss Philanthropy Foundation and the King Baudouin Foundation, has developed an online Transnational Giving Europe Platform.

 

This platform enables European donors to make online cross-border donations to non-profit organisations across Europe and to benefit from tax advantages available in their country of residence in a secured legal and fiscal framework.

Individual and corporate donors from the following countries are now able to make online donations through the Transnational Giving Europe Platform:

Belgium, Bulgaria, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Italy, Spain, and Switzerland.

See here for an example of an online donation page set up for one of our European beneficiaries: Children Tumour Foundation 

 

 

A European Catalogue for Non Profit Organizations

Moreover, on November 28th of 2023, the Transnational Giving Europe Network launched its cutting-edge online platform—a comprehensive European Catalogue of non-profit organizations.

The unveiling of our new online platform signifies a milestone in the realm of European cross-border philanthropy. The hallmark of this new platform is its ability to boost charitable giving across Europe and showcase TGE-registered charities with online donation pages. These organizations will now be easily discoverable through a user-friendly interface, allowing users to search by name, cause, or even donors’ country of tax residence.

And, as an added dimension, the platform introduces a “Projects of the Month” section, spotlighting three exceptional charities each month. By harnessing the power of technology and collaboration, TGE is paving the way for a more connected and impactful charitable ecosystem across Europe.
