Your contribution builds the bridge.
You don't need a company to be part of the Foundation. You can join as a professional, as a supporter, or with a signature on your 5×1000 (Italian income-tax allocation to nonprofits). And if you want more, there are the community, the evening events and the international delegations.
Belonging comes before any contribution
The first step costs nothing: being there. The community, the evening events and the delegations come before any donation. Then there are the ways to support the bridge.
The community and the events
Free keynotes, community evenings, a network of people who actually meet in person.
UPCOMING KEYNOTESThe international delegations
Every year, a mission to the places where the future is being built. A dedicated €4,500 donation makes a seat in the delegation possible.
HOW THE MISSIONS WORKGive back
Giving back part of what you have received, with no expectation of exchange: that is the pact holding this community together.

Charitable donation
Make a donation to the Foundation and get a significant share back through your Italian tax return. The Italian State encourages donations to Third Sector Entities listed in the RUNTS (Italian National Register of Third Sector Entities).
- 1Make your donation by traceable bank transfer (cash is not eligible for tax purposes).
- 2Keep the transfer receipt and any receipt issued by the Foundation.
- 3In your Italian tax return (730 or REDDITI PF forms), enter the donated amount in the section for charitable donations to ETS (Third Sector Entities).
- 4The 30% relief is subtracted directly from the IRPEF tax you owe, not from your taxable income.
As an alternative, you can deduct the donation from your total income, up to 10% of declared income (art. 83, para. 2, Legislative Decree 117/2017). This tends to pay off when taxable income is high. To pick the most advantageous option, we recommend speaking with your tax advisor.
The 5×1000
Allocating your 5×1000 to the Foundation costs you nothing. It is a share of your IRPEF income tax that is allocated anyway: if you don't state a preference, it goes to the State. You choose where it goes, and the cost to you is zero.
- 1Fill in your Italian tax return (730 or REDDITI PF forms), or hand it to a CAF (tax-assistance center) or your accountant.
- 2Look for the box “Destinazione del 5×1000 dell'IRPEF” (allocation of the 5×1000 of IRPEF).
- 3In the section “Sostegno degli enti del Terzo Settore iscritti al RUNTS”, sign and write the Foundation's tax ID: 92096770604.
- 4Done. The Foundation receives its share directly from the Italian Revenue Agency, at no cost to you.
The 5×1000 can be combined with charitable donations: you can do both in the same tax year.
