Gems donation
If the samples are in Switzerland, we can come and collect them. If they’re in another country, just pack them up and we’ll arrange for UPS or Fedex to come and collect them. The donators are mentionned in our website, if you don’t want it, just let us know.
Financial support
You can make a transfer to our bank account in Geneva, or you can use PayPal to make a one-off payment or a monthly instalment. To do this, contact us, and we will tell you where to make your donation. We are a non-profit foundation, so you can deduct the amount of your donation from your tax return.
