Donations, Bequests and Legacies

The work of Stiftung Edith Maryon is only possible thanks to contributions from those who support its efforts. Donations, bequests and legacies – also in the form of property – conferred upon Stiftung Edith Maryon are assured of producing long-term benefit because our socially responsible activities centre round real estate and associated projects. Also feasible are property bequests combined with stated conditions, for example, that revenue earned goes in part to the Foundation, in part to a project or purpose defined by the bequeathing party. Any possibility of transfer of properties to third parties is ruled out.

Stiftung Edith Maryon is registered as a charity in Basel-Landschaft, the Swiss canton in which it is domiciled, and thus exempt from taxation, also in regard to inheritance or gift tax. All donations to the Foundation are tax-deductible inside Switzerland.

Donations, bequests and legacies in Germany can also be made to our non-profit Terra libra – Gesellschaft zur Bildung von sozial innovativem Nutzungseigentum mbH (a limited company for the «formation of socially innovative ownership to use»). The Foundation’s hundred percent subsidiary is domiciled in Berlin (Germany), supporting its activities in this country. Terra Libra is registered as a charity in Germany, and thus exempt from taxation. Contact and bank details: Terra Libra gGmbH.
