Fondation d'Entreprise Philippine de Rothschild focuses on supporting emerging creators—especially young writers, screenwriters, and performing artists—so their work can reach a wider audience. It also uses staff-voted local prize funding to back community-minded associations in the Médoc/Nouvelle-Aquitaine area, with occasional support for social causes such as women’s safety, children’s health, literacy, and heritage preservation. The foundation is distinctive for combining cultural patronage with highly localized, employee-driven philanthropy.
Mix of invite-only prizes and an online call-for-projects process. Awards are typically small grants or prizes in the roughly €7,000–€7,500 range, often annual and highly selective, with some support directed by employee vote rather than open application.
For cultural projects, use the foundation’s online project submission form and frame the proposal around literature, written culture, or performing arts with clear public reach. For local social/heritage support, note that some awards are staff-voted and invite-only, so unsolicited applications may not be accepted for those programs; emphasize territorial relevance to Médoc/Nouvelle-Aquitaine and concrete community benefit.
