Crédit Coopératif Foundation

About Crédit Coopératif Foundation

The Crédit Coopératif Foundation supports projects that advance the social and solidarity economy (ESS) in France, especially those that combine social impact with ecological transition and stronger collective agency. It tends to back both local ESS initiatives and national experiments or research-action projects that generate transferable knowledge, improve practice, and help grow the next generation of ESS actors. Its approach is distinctive for favoring mission-aligned, field-building work rather than broad general philanthropy.
