As a non-profit organization, we always welcome and appreciate contributions to sustain our library. Donations from individuals or firms are tax deductible within the limits set by law.

If you would like to make a donation to the English-Language Library in Angers, please write a check (in euros) to the Association Angevine de la Bibliothèque Américaine. You can bring it to our front desk or send it in the mail. After receiving your check we will give you a tax receipt to keep in your records.

We would be pleased to receive donations from outside of France. Please contact Phoebe Marshall-Raimbeau. Thank you very much for your support!


Tax deduction information

As translated from information provided by the French government:

[In France] the tax reduction amount is equivalent to 66% of the donated sum, deductable within the limit of 20% of total annual taxable revenue. This limit is doubled on preceeding years' returns.

For example:

—You decide to donate 200 € to the library. This entitles you to a tax writeoff of 132 € (66% of 200). The remaining sum of 68 € would still be taxable.
