Created at the end of year 1992 under the guidance of the Fondation de France, the SUEZ Foundation acts in favour of the childhood in need of help in the areas of Health and Education. It encourages long term projects led by associations that are well implanted in their communities and with which it can conclude pluriannual partnerships. In France, it orientates its support towards children touched by a disease and actions that contribute to an easier journey in an hospital or that allow the children to access entertainment.
At an international scale, the SUEZ Foundation acts in countries where the company is implanted ; it helps children that are victims of great poverty like those living in the streets, in slums or those infected by AIDS. It also supports the numerous initiatives proposed by collaborators of SUEZ Group who are the relays of its engagement with associations for childhood.
