In memoriam donation: paying tribute to a loved one through a gesture of solidarity  

In times of grief, everyone looks for a sincere way to say goodbye and keep the memory alive. What if that memory could become a source of strength for others? By choosing to make a memorial donation to Action contre la Faim, you are paying tribute to a loved one while supporting an essential cause: the fight against hunger in the world.

What does it mean to make a donation in memory of someone ? 

Making a donation in memory of someone who has passed away is choosing to transform loss into a meaningful gesture. It is paying tribute to a loved one by supporting a cause that extends their values, their commitments, or simply the love you have for them.  

Whether at a funeral, on the anniversary of their passing, on All Saints’ Day, or simply when the need to reflect and take action arises, a memorial donation is a personal way to keep their memory alive. 

Why make a In memoriam donation ?  

For some, making a memorial donation is a more lasting and equally meaningful way to pay tribute than flowers or a wreath. Donating in memory of a loved one transforms grief into a force that nourishes hope and enables concrete action to improve the lives of vulnerable people around the world. 

Each memorial donation strengthens Action contre la Faim’s ability to support millions of people every year. 

How can I make a donation in memory ? 

To make a one-time donation in memory of a loved one, you can visit our secure online form, accessible from our website. You will have the opportunity to add the name of the person you wish to paying tribute and write a condolence message to accompany your donation.  

If you wish, you can share your initiative with your friends and family and give them the opportunity to join you by creating an in memoriam fundraising page for Action contre la Faim. This page can be created when you make your donation by checking the relevant box or directly on our secure platform. You will find a list of donors and their respective donations if you wish to thank them.  

In both cases, we leave it up to you to inform the family or loved ones of the deceased about your initiative.  

As a donation to a charity, your memorial donation entitles you to an income tax reduction of 75% of the amount donated, up to a limit of €1,000 (ceiling for 2025).  

Through your donation, the story of your loved one continues to inspire, support, and make a difference for those in need. Thank you!
