A corporate foundation involved in many actions

In 2008, Saint-Gobain created its corporate foundation: Saint-Gobain Initiatives. It supports projects in the following areas:

• employment in the habitat segment for disadvantaged youth;
• the construction, improvement or renovation of low-income housing;
• and reducing energy consumption and environmental conservation in public housing.

The Foundation finances work and contributes technical expertise for the projects nominated by, and supported by, the Group’s employees and retirees.

So far, 54 projects in 20 countries have been accepted for support by the Foundation for a total commitment of 4.3 million euros.
Sixteen projects are currently being reviewed for a total budget of 2.2 million euros.
