The Clariane Foundation mobilizes Group employees to sponsor community projects promoting physical activity for vulnerable people
Launched in June 2025, the Clariane Foundation’s call for projects aims to support, through the sponsorship of Clariane employees, community-based initiatives that use physical activity as a lever for inclusion or for improving the health of people who are socially or physically vulnerable. In November 2025, the selection committee shortlisted 65 community projects across France.
As part of its work on the theme “Enjoy Caring”, the Clariane Foundation places employee engagement at the heart of its actions. Through this call for projects, employees put forward and sponsor a local nonprofit organization running a project in which physical activity improves the health or daily lives of vulnerable individuals.
Applications submitted under the call for projects were reviewed by a dedicated selection committee composed of:
- Dr. Priscilla Clot Faybesse, Medical Director of Clariane France;
- Bruno Humbert, President and co-founder of La Ruche, and co-founder of HelloAsso;
- Richard Michel, Director of the Canal de l’Ourcq Clinic – Inicea, and of the Paris Autonomous Outpatient Rehabilitation Center;
- Jérôme Vandekerkhove, Rehabilitation Manager in an Inicea Medical and Rehabilitation Care clinic, Rehabilitation Professions Lead at Clariane University, and member of the Clariane France Stakeholders Committee and Mission Committee.
Among the projects supported by Clariane employees in France, initiatives will make it possible to organize outings in trishaw bicycles for isolated older adults, help women in remission from breast cancer regain self-confidence through a restorative stay in the mountains combining physical and psychological support, and enable people with disabilities to enjoy horse riding safely thanks to an adapted saddle module.
The momentum behind this call for projects is built above all on the mobilization of our employees across the entire country. Through their commitment and sponsorship, they have made it possible to support a wide range of local initiatives, clearly illustrating the positive impact of physical activity on people living in vulnerable situations
