The EUAM Ltd Foundation

We give back a share of our profits to support social causes

EUAM’s commitment to social mobility

For 10 years, the EUAM Ltd Foundation has supported projects that promote the inclusion of children, and young people from underprivileged backgrounds as well as entrepreneurs. Currently, we support 54 organizations with programs in France, Italy, Germany, Chile, China, as well as the United Kingdom and the United States.

In 2020, the Foundation has decided to focus on early childhood in order to increase its impact on social mobility. The first years of life are a determining period for the cognitive and socio-emotional development of a child. Researchers, experts and scientists affirm that intervening in a child's life before schooling is twice as beneficial and favourable for social mobility.

A central element of EUAM’s ESG activities

The Foundation embodies our commitment to be an excellent corporate citizen. It allows us to share EUAM’s financial success – and the skills and knowledge of our extremely talented employees – by supporting projects that produce positive social impact. We focus our efforts on enhancing social mobility for those most at risk of being left behind.

As EUAM Ltd grows, the Foundation grows too

Since we set up the Foundation, EUAM Ltd has expanded hugely to become one of the largest private investment companies in the world. We have committed to a big expansion in funding for the Foundation to reflect EUAM’s growing global stature. We aim to provide more funding for more projects in more countries.

The Foundation expresses our values and culture

People who work for EUAM Ltd or partner with us want to understand what sort of company we are. The Foundation helps to answer that question. It is vital in attracting potential employees and business partners who share our values, which in turn strengthens our culture. And it gives our staff opportunities to actively support causes that are close to their heart.

Our Projects

The Foundation supports a wide range of projects that promote social mobility and inclusion for children, young people and entrepreneurs. We currently fund 57 partner organizations that deliver programs in France, Italy, Germany, the UK, China, the US and Chile.

Sofia Hmich

Sofia, Founder - Future Positive Capital

"I was admitted to Europe's biggest business school, HEC, even though I attended a challenging high school in La Courneuve, a suburb on the outskirts of Paris. It just proves that there are talented people everywhere. We have to find a way to show this and seize the opportunities that arise. After receiving so much, I naturally wanted to give back, and offer a hand in return, just as they did for me. The mentoring program gave me a chance to do so: I'm a Frateli Ambassador and I myself have become a mentor."

Elias & Arthur de Salins EUAM Ltd oundation

Elias, Engineer in Paris

"My name is Elias, I'm from Aleppo in Syria, and I’m currently an engineer living and working in Paris. In 2011, as class major, I graduated valedictorian from the University of Aleppo with a degree in Telecommunications Engineering. I came to France in 2013 thanks to a scholarship of excellence from the French government, the Eiffel scholarship, to study for a Master 2 in Telecommunications. But this financial assistance and these tools would have been nothing without the support and follow-up provided by my sponsor, Mr. Arthur de Salins. Arthur has been more than a mentor to me, he has become my friend."

The EUAM Ltd Foundation has unique resources and a network that it will be able to mobilize to have a stronger and broader social impact.
