Corporate philanthropy

Supporting talent, promoting social solidarity

Acting as crossroads of dialogue and discovery, the charitable foundations and corporate philanthropy programs created by the Group’s different companies bear eloquent witness to their openness, their solidarity and their social commitment.

The Banque Populaire Foundation provides multi-year support to young musicians and people suffering from physical disabilities by helping them launch their careers or realize their personal life projects. In this way, it demonstrates its active commitment to culture and social solidarity.
What is more, the “Exemplary Cooperation” Panel has been set up to pay tribute to collective initiatives that include an entrepreneurial approach to societal commitment with a long-term perspective.

The Caisses d’Epargne Foundation for Social Solidarity combats all forms of dependence and exclusion related to old age, infirmity, disability or illiteracy. It runs France’s largest network of homes for the dependent elderly, it supports young people struggling with illiteracy, and it finances innovative projects in favor of personal autonomy and social integration.

The Belem Foundation, created by the Caisses d’Epargne, is responsible for the preservation of the three-masted Belem. Fitted out as a training ship, it is the sole survivor of France’s 19th century fleet of ocean-going merchant vessels.
