The Arkema Fund
Since its inception, it has:
- Supported over 100 projects in the 18 countries where the Group operates,
- Contributed over one million euros in donations,
- Enabled the emergence of concrete initiatives that sustainably improve the daily lives of thousands of beneficiaries.
These results are the fruit of the dedication and creativity of employees who, each year, spearhead solidarity projects rooted in the regions where we operate.
We are proud to present a few of the organizations supported by the Arkema Fund:
ACADIA (France)
ACADIA’s primary mission is to improve the daily lives of young people with diabetes by making their lives as easy and enjoyable as possible through the use of dogs’ sense of smell and therapeutic abilities.
To this end, the association:
- Trains medical assistance dogs for people with diabetes by establishing the first dedicated school in France.
- Coordinates a network of dog trainers specializing in diabetes in France. Building a network is essential to ensure a larger pool of trainers and a nationwide coverage.
- Promotes this complementary solution by initiating and conducting scientific studies to validate the ability of trained dogs to detect hypoglycemia and hyperglycemia and to assess the impact of a diabetic assistance dog on glycemic control and quality of life.
Eysines handball Club (France)
The Eysines Handball Club shares its passion for handball with students at a medical-educational institute, by offering them a specially adapted activity.
The club also includes young handball players who use wheelchairs, allowing them to play alongside their hemiplegic teammates.
FootballPlus Limited (Singapore)
Through its “STAY in the game” program, FootballPlus Limited is offering a six-week series of sessions at ten schools for 200 students (ages 10 to 12), combining soccer training with educational activities, with the aim of promoting mental well-being and the early detection of mental health issues.
Southeastern Hockey Association of Wisconsin (USA)
The hockey club offers a program tailored to individuals with special needs (ADHD, autism, Down syndrome).
It promotes inclusion and personal development by building self-confidence and social skills. It welcomes athletes with disabilities of all ages to participate in a fun and accessible sport.
