Donations and Endowments
"For me making donations and endowments means contibuting with money too to the world becoming a world in which I am happy and glad to live." Miriam Edding, filia-endowment donor
Donations
In addition to capital yields, filia needs donations in order to be able to implement its promotion work.
Donations flow directly into the projects in line with the decisions of the Foundation Board.
If you would like to support a specific project with your donation, you can make an earmarked donation. The donation then goes directly to the project of your choice.
We retain 10% for the administrative overheads of filia.

Sponsorship body
Women and men who would like to support filia regularly – small amounts are welcome too – are cordially invited to join the sponsorship body. The regularity of contributions improves our planning certainty. You can help us particularly by setting up a standing order or issuing authority for direct debiting.

Endowments
Endowments are long-term investments. Your endowment contribution (minimum € 1,500.00) increases the foundation capital. The capital is invested to bring sustainable returns. The foundation works with these returns from the capital.
The foundation was established in 2001 by nine women as a community foundation. At the end of 2009 there were already 39 endowment donors shouldering filia.
Women whose endowment donation is accepted by the Foundation Board join the Assembly of Donors
- for three years, if their endowment contribution amounts to Euro 1,500 as a minimum.
- for ten years if they make an endowment contribution of Euro 20,000.
- for life if they make an endowment contribution of more then
Euro 50,000.
The donors meet in Hamburg once a year. Every three years they elect the foundation council.

>> more about taxes
For amounts of € 200.00 and more filia will send you a donation receipt/certificate of grant. For amounts below € 200.00 the payment voucher or bank statement serves the tax office as sufficient evidence of your donation. Naturally we are always willing to issue a donation receipt for smaller sums too on request.
