CSR and solidarity

Paris La Défense is participating in the 40th annual Téléthon!

Because Paris La Défense is much more than just a business district, the area has decided to partner with the Téléthon for this year’s event and is counting on your support to raise as many donations as possible. Let’s come together and make Paris La Défense a place where solidarity comes to life!

To mark the 40th edition of the Téléthon, Paris La Défense has chosen to take its CSR efforts a step further by joining the movement led by the AFM-Téléthon. Because the fight against rare diseases is also a remarkable human journey, rooted in research, innovation, and collective action.

In Paris La Défense, we’re convinced that major challenges are best tackled collectively!

Businesses, employees, students, shopkeepers, visitors, residents, and local stakeholders: everyone can do their part. Every donation counts, and every action can help advance the cause.

We’ve set a goal of raising €30,000 in donations across our beautiful district.

So join the movement and:

The Téléthon for rare diseases

The AFM-Téléthon was founded on a conviction and a determination: to find cures for diseases long considered incurable. To succeed, the association has established a golden rule: rigor and efficiency. The Association pursues a strategy in the public interest. The scientific, medical, and social innovation it drives benefits all those with rare diseases and people with disabilities and advances medicine as a whole.

Getting involved with the Telethon means supporting those who battle illness every day, but also helping to advance research and transform scientific progress into solutions for patients.

CSR at the heart of the business district

Making Paris La Défense a community committed to social responsibility and solidarity also means creating opportunities to get involved, connect with others, and take collective action for causes that go beyond everyday work life.

For several years now, Paris La Défense has been committed to bringing this vision to life by valuing people and their skills, fostering connections among residents and visitors, and enabling everyone to get involved in new ways—whether at work, school, home, or as a visitor. Blood drives, community events, and sports activities are just some of the initiatives that help make Paris La Défense a true hub of solidarity.
