Description


In March 2020, as Covid 19 spread across Europe and France, members of the French financial industry gathered and launched an initiative to support the efforts of caregivers and medical staff in their fight against the pandemic.

In the framework of this initiative “Tous unis contre le virus” (united we stand against the virus), The Comgest Foundation decided to grant an exceptional donation to the Fondation de France in partnership with the Institut Pasteur and the Assistance Publique - Hôpitaux de Paris (AP-HP).
