General Principles of Philanthropic Support 

The HOROPEDIA Foundation relies on the support of generous donors and patrons to continue its activities — in particular, to cover the investment budget and contribute to the operating budget of the MACH.

To honour founding patrons in a distinctive and long-term way, they will have the opportunity to have their names displayed on a commemorative plaque within the MACH.

In addition to long-term visibility recognising their initial support, certain tolerated ancillary benefits will later be granted to patrons and donors.

There are three ways to support the Foundation:

⁃ The Guardians of  Time

⁃ The Circle of Horopedians

⁃ Friends of Horopedia

Swiss donors may deduct their donations from taxes according to the legislation in force at the donor institution’s registered office or at the private donor’s place of residence.

For taxpayers residing in the United States, a solution offering equivalent tax benefits will be proposed for donations exceeding CHF 10,000.

Upon receipt of each donation, a donation receipt will be issued to the patron, serving as an accounting document and allowing the donation amount to be tax-deductible in accordance with the regulations in force at the donor’s place of residence or the company’s registered office.t.
