Donate – Serve the City Brussels

To serve the city, we need your help.

Serve the City Brussels depends on the tireless dedication of thousands of volunteers who invest their time in caring for people in need. We also depend on the voluntary financial donations of people like you.

Each euro counts and you can transform the lives of the people we serve by giving to us.

And if you give to us 40 € or more per year, you will receive a tax credit (see FAQ below).

Here is the information for a bank transfer if that is more convenient for you. Please consider setting up a standing order.

Why give to us?

Financial support for Serve the City comes from team-buildings, fundraisers and private donors. We rely entirely on donations from people like you to fund our projects. Your contributions empower our 2000 volunteers to act.

Your donation will make it possible for us to organise activities and equip volunteers to serve people in need in Brussels: people who are homeless or seeking asylum, people who are elderly, persons with disabilities, children in need, and victims of abuse.

If you have seen the positive impact of volunteering with STC why not make a financial donation to provide others the same opportunity to make a difference?

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I get a tax reduction for my donation?

In short YES!

In long:

Serve the City is since 2020 a nonprofit recognised by the FPS Finances. Every donor who pays taxes in Belgium and donated to us 40 € or more during the year 2020 will receive a tax reduction of 60% of the total amount donated (e.g. if you donated to us 100 € in 2020, you will have a tax reduction of 60 €).

But to be able to do this, we do need your physical address, or we can’t deliver the receipt, so make sure to fill it in the form above.

More information from the FPS Finances can be found here (in French).
