Cité Solidaire in Tourcoing

17 January 2012 - Sustainability - France

As part of the Cité Solidaire programme, supported by the Foundation, eight associations in Tourcoing (north of France) officially received their support funding on 6 December 2011 during the Foundation’s Nord-Picardie Regional Day. This funding, €100,000 in total, will contribute to improving the lives of people living in sensitive urban neighbourhoods, in the areas of youth employment, education and citizenship. These eight little neighbourhood associations will also be able to draw on the expertise of sponsors, employees of local VINCI firms.
