Armelle Volkringer,

Foundation's Secretary

Our Foundation is one-year old!
 
 
Created to link cultures and provide support for the development of individuals and their integration into the community the Accor Foundation has given birth and helped you, Accor employees, developing your solidarity actions.
 
 
At the end of this first year, the Accor Foundation is proud to support 25 projects in 15 countries.
 
 
 
 
This first anniversary is a wonderful occasion to share with all of Accor employees its first concrete results: thus a week of events is organized within all the Group. This anniversary week is also an opportunity to have you discover the first projects in the 4 Foundation dedicated focuses: Local know-how, Training and integration of young people in difficulty, Culture and heritage, Humanitarian and urgency.
 
 
As this symbolic event displays the employees’generosity, the 2009 edition will take place within the Foundation’s one-year anniversary week.
 
 
One year, and already a very positive outcome, and I am convinced it is only the beginning....
My wish for the future : to have more of you requesting the help of the Foundation to back your solidarity actions.
 
 
Thank you to all of you for your involvement, have a beautiful week and see you next year with more and more projects all around the world !
 
 
Armelle Volkringer
Secretary of the Foundation Board
