Why make a corporate donation to a charity?
Today, more and more companies are choosing to support charities. This commitment allows them both to contribute to a cause of solidarity and to reinforce their company's CSR strategy.

- 🤝 support social or humanitarian actions
- 🌍 contribute to high-impact solidarity projects
- 👥 unite employees around a meaningful cause
- ⭐ enhance the company's responsible image
- 💰 benefit from tax advantages

Corporate sponsorship: a simple and effective framework
Corporate donations are generally part of a broader sponsorship approach.
Corporate philanthropy is the support that a company gives to a non-profit organisation.
There are several forms of sponsorship:
- 💶 financial donation
- 📦 donation in kind
- 🧠 skills sponsorship
Financial donations are still the most common form of support. In this case, the company makes a contribution to fund a solidarity project.
Skills sponsorship enables employees to put their expertise at the service of an association.
In this way, each company can adapt its commitment according to its resources and priorities.
Tax relief: a major advantage for businesses
Corporate philanthropy also offers significant tax benefits. In fact, companies can benefit from a tax reduction.
In France, a company can obtain a tax reduction corresponding to 60 % of the amount of the donation, up to a limit of 0.5 % of turnover excluding tax.
Let's take a simple example.
A company making a donation of €10,000 can benefit from a tax reduction of €6,000.
The real cost of the donation is therefore much lower, which encourages companies to support solidarity projects.
