For every donation above €40, you will receive a tax certificate that allows you to deduct 45% of this amount from your taxes to be paid. This means that in case of a donation of €40, it will only cost you €22 (€40 x 55%). The certificate is granted by the Belgian government and is send to you by the Bakery School Foundation within the first three months after the year you have made the donation. This deduction is based on article 145/33 of the Belgian income tax code. This is for all donations received after 1 January 2019.
