   YOUR DONATION COULD BE DEDUCTED FROM YOUR TAXES   

Koural is approved as an association of general interest by the French administration, and as such each of its donors benefits from a tax deduction in France equivalent to 66% of the amount of his or her donation to our organization (within the limit of 20% of his or her taxable income).

For example, if you make a donation of 100€ to Koural, it will only cost you 34€, because the French government will reimburse you 66€ in the form of a deduction on your French taxes.

NOTA : some other countries offer their taxpayers this kind of benefit when they make donations to foreign non-profit organizations. Check the regulations in your country.

 

 

   WHY SUPPORTING KOURAL   

Human-induced upheavals are numerous these days on our planet: demographic boom, climate change, pollution, etc.

No one will miss this information, or almost.

However, if there is one area that is less known by the public and even by scientists, it is that of marine ecosystems, and therefore also those related to the effects of these upheavals on these ecosystems. And for a good reason, we cannot breathe underwater!

For a long time, this ignorance has allowed to protect these biotopes from human nuisance. Unfortunately, this is no longer the case today...

40%  of the oceans are severely affected by human activities

29%   of seagrass has been lost in the last century

50%  of the mangrove surface has disappeared

80%  of the world's ecoregions are affected by invasive species

20%  of coral reffs habe been lost and 20% are damaged

 By 2100, ocean acidification could have reached  150%

And yet, since then, knowledge has been growing thanks to the abundance of research programs and technological advances that have made what was previously unavailable to scientists accessible.

Koural's mission is to participate in the dissemination of this knowledge so that everyone can have the opportunity to act before it is too late.

 

We love what has amzed us, and we protect what we love
