Our motivation comes from the knowledge that 85% of this project’s budget must come from private hands and that preservation funding is always in short supply.

The history and beauty of Saint Germain des Prés have long touched the lives of Parisians and Americans alike. We ask that you join your passion for Paris to ours. It is a passion for a parish church at the crossroads of fifteen centuries of art, architecture, spirituality, and the quest for beauty.

Although we have temporarily suspended our fundraising activities in the United Sates, we continue to hope to bequeath a fully renewed church of Saint Germain des Prés into the next thousand years of its extraordinary history.. 

(Please be advised we are currently in the process of re-establishing our tax-exempt charity status and that any gifts or donations currently made to our foundation are not subject to tax deductibility for US taxpayers.)
