Created in 2009, the Casino Foundation focuses its action in this strong tradition of the Group by committing against children’s cultural exclusion.
Convinced that art is a medium particularly adapted to children experiencing school or social difficulties, the Casino Foundation has chosen to support education via theatre, by enabling artistic experiences which are collective and structuring. The projects it finances encourage self-expression and the discovery of others, access to culture, soft skills, and styling. The Casino Foundation therefore aims at helping the youth, from a young age, understanding the benefits of culture, developing confidence and believing in one’s own talents, key for a successful school and social integration.
Its program “Artists at school”, deployed at school in rural and priority education areas, enables around 2 000 students to take advantage of an artistic and cultural course for two years.
The Casino Foundation also enlists employees within “Tous en Scène“. This action of solidarity to collect funds is organised with the support of the Group’s brands, in June. Every year over 4 000 stores get involved for the benefit of two of the Foundation’s partner associations: Apprentis d’Auteuil and l’ENVOL.
