HELEN KELLER INTERNATIONAL
If you are taxable in France, you can benefit from tax deductibility for your donations to the vitamin A program of Helen Keller.
According to the World Health Organisation, every year vitamin A deficiency leads to blindness in 250,000-500,000 children and half of them die within 12 months [1]. Helen Keller Intl supports government programs that provide high-dose vitamin A capsules to at-risk infants. A single vitamin A capsule administered twice a year to children for the first five years of their lives can literally save their sight and their lives.
Impact of your donations
Supplying a child with vitamin A supplements for a year costs less than €2 [2]. The world's leading charity evaluator, GiveWell, estimates that by donating to Helen Keller, you can save a life for as little as €5,000 [3].
- 50 € : Provide vitamin A to 25 children for one year. Your donation will help prevent blindness.

- 500 € : Provide vitamin A to 250 children for 1 year. Your donation will help prevent blindness.
