Approach
Making a difference is at the heart of all Children Action's commitments.
The Foundation intervenes and supports projects that aim to have a long-term positive impact on the lives of the beneficiaries.
Children Action is not a grant-making foundation. The Foundation runs its own programs or works with partners on the strategic development, implementation, and monitoring of projects.
It also acts as an incubator and catalyst for projects with the aim of accelerating the implementation of initiatives, replicating successful programs, or transforming innovative ideas into concrete actions.
01
Répondre à un besoin
La Fondation s’engage à répondre à des besoins humanitaires clairement émis en tenant compte de la motivation, des aptitudes, de l’éthique des équipes locales et de l’impact du projet sur les bénéficiaires.
02
Apporter un réel changement
Chaque projet vise à apporter à court, moyen et long terme, un changement concret dans la vie des bénéficiaires.
03
S'entourer des meilleurs spécialistes
Les choix et les orientations de Children Action sont décidés par le Conseil de Fondation et confortés par un Comité d’éthique, tous deux composés de personnalités du monde scientifique, médical et des affaires. L’évaluation, l’exécution et le suivi des projets sont assurés par des experts reconnus dans leur domaine. Chirurgiens, psychiatres, médecins et autres spécialistes mettent à disposition leurs compétences et leur expertise afin d’assurer les soins les mieux adaptés.
04
Démultiplier les ressources
Un environnement participatif visant à accroître l’apport des ressources nécessaires à la mise en place des programmes est développé pour chaque projet. Grâce à ce système, via des partenariats locaux, l’implication des équipes bénévoles, les dons de matériel, les services pro bono de bienfaiteurs ainsi que l'optimisation des coûts, la valeur des projets financés par la Fondation est multipliée par trois en moyenne.

Governance
The decisions and guidelines of Children Action are defined by the Board of Trustees and confirmed by an Ethics Committee, both of which are made up of personalities from the world of science, medicine, and business. The evaluation, implementation, and monitoring of projects are carried out by recognized experts in their field. Surgeons, psychiatrists, physicians, and other specialists use their skills and expertise to provide the most appropriate care.
Leverage
All the salaries of the Children's Action headquarters and all the administrative costs are covered by the Founder and his family foundation, so that the funds raised can be used 100% for actions in the field.
In addition, a participatory environment is developed for each project in order to increase the contribution of resources needed to implement the programmes. Thanks to this system, the value of the projects financed by the Foundation is multiplied by an average of three through local partnerships, the involvement of volunteer teams, donations of equipment, pro bono services from benefactors and cost optimisation. Through local partnerships, the involvement of volunteer teams, donations of equipment, pro bono services from benefactors and cost optimisation, the value of the projects funded by the Foundation is on average multiplied by three.
