Our Accounts

Revenues and their uses, presented in the Income Statement by Source and Use, reflect a sound financial position. In 2024, resources totaled €39.4 million, representing a slight increase of 1.6%, primarily due to a €2.5 million increase in government grants, income not related to public donations of €2 million, as well as the use of previously earmarked funds totaling €0.99 million. Resources derived from public donations totaled €28.5 million, a decrease of €4.4 million, or -14%, thus returning to a more typical level after a year in 2023 marked by exceptional fundraising appeals related to the crises in Syria and Nagorno-Karabakh. At the same time, grant funding, which totaled €38.4 million, decreased by 4%, in line with this trend. Fundraising and operating expenses accounted for 15.1%.
