Read the news
Health as a priority
CNP Assurances Foundation, created in 1993 under the auspices of Fondation de France, became a Corporate Foundation in 2011. It is committed to public health. What is its role? To promote, support and initiate any action and any project of general interest in the healthcare field. It fits perfectly with CNP Assurances’ mission for the last 170 years.
2 main missions
Cardiac emergency
As early as 2009, the Foundation decided to commit to improving the management of cardiac arrest and first aid. Promoting the presence of defibrillators in public places and raising awareness of their use can save between 5,000 and 10,000 lives each year.
Reduce social inequalities in health
France is the Western European country with the greatest social inequalities in healthcare. Prevention and promotion of health, access to rights, education, etc. – the Foundation works in these key areas to strive for a more egalitarian society among the young, from secondary school pupils to students, for a fairer society.

Our employees commit themselves
CNP Assurances employees volunteer their time and skills to associations. The Foundation supports their healthcare, disability and education initiatives. Since 2011, 57 projects have been funded, including 13 in 2017.
L'Escale Solidaire, taking care of the vulnerable
As a volunteer for the Habitat et Humanisme charity, our employee Aline Diouri (Customer Relations Manager in the Social Protection BU) runs the "Escale Solidaire" project in Lyon. It is a place of sociability and solidarity, helping people in vulnerable and socially isolated situations. They are given a decent meal, benefit from well-being and health workshops and obtain support with social and professional integration. In short, L'Escale Solidaire helps people get back on their feet.
Reducing cardiovascular risk by training children and parents
Acting early can reduce cardiovascular mortality. This is the objective of #PulseUnCoeur. Romain Renault (advisor to the Amétis network) works with the Jeune Chambre Economique Nantes Métropole Sud Loire on this initiative, which raises awareness and trains children aged 10+ and their parents in life-saving techniques. In 2019, 200 people in the commune of Vertou (Loire-Atlantique) benefited from the #PulseUnCoeur programme.
Digital professions are also for girls
An initiative of Fondation Agir Contre l'Exclusion, the "Wi-Filles" programme was set up to raise awareness among young girls of professions in the digital sector, to empower them and help them to realise their potential. Our employee Sébastien Masset, based in Angers, is involved in the activities organised by the Wi-Filles Club for 11- to 15-year-old girls who attend one of the schools in the city's priority neighbourhoods.
Dance as a means of promoting the inclusion of young people with disabilities
DANSARTE is a charity established to promote the inclusion of young people with disabilities through dance and employee Magali Renard, based in Angers, is an active member. DANSARTE's objective is to develop the practice of dance among these young people, either in ordinary classes whenever possible or in specialised classes. The classes help the dancers feel more confident in a group, but also increase their self-esteem through the ability to learn a technical gesture and to improvise.
