Donating to the Duomo’s restoration is simple and no minimum amount is required (only online donations require a minimum of €5). Following the donation, it will be possible to insert your name in the Veneranda Fabbrica’s Donor Register, drawn up in both in paper and online formats, thus having the possibility of linking your name with the history of the Cathedral. Registration takes place with the prior written consent of the donor and/or the recipient of the donation. It will be the responsibility of the Donations Office to send the appropriate consent form, in accordance with privacy laws.
Additional benefits and opportunities are also reserved for donors based on the amount donated, one of these is the issuing of a Certificate for contributions equal to or greater than €50, which can also be personalised with the name of one or more people and a brief dedication. It is therefore possible to give a gift to loved ones through an original and generous gesture that translates into concrete help for the Duomo’s many restoration activities.
It should be noted that all donations contribute to Milan Duomo’s overall restoration projects and that associating one’s donation to a specific fundraising initiative is purely indicative: the Veneranda Fabbrica, through its Operations Management, will identify the sites on the Monument most in need of urgent restoration.
Finally, all donations are managed with maximum transparency and the Fabbrica undertakes to communicate – through the portal, newsletter, and periodical – systematic updates on work progress and news.
