We would like to establish something similar for the Clos de la Lombarde. We want it to benefit from the generosity of individuals andbusinesses who are ready to show their interest and commitment to this exceptional archaeological site while benefiting fromadvantageous tax provisions. To bring this ambition to life, we have created an instrument that allows this generosity to be expressed: the endowment fund "MaryseSabrié" for the ancient and historical heritage of the region of Narbonne. We named this fund to pay homage to the great lady who,alongside her husband Raymond, discovered the Clos de la Lombarde, excavated it for many decades, participated in the restoration ofantique wall paintings to which she devoted her doctoral thesis. This endowment fund, a legal entity under French law, shares the values and objectives of our association: not for profit, to work for acause of general interest, the preservation and enhancement of our heritage, in particular the Clos de la Lombarde. From now on, you as a private individual or as a commercial enterprise, can dedicate a portion of your taxes to the support of this project.To do this, simply make a donation to the Maryse Sabrié fund. In return, we will send you the CERFA receipt with which you can claim taxbenefits.
