The Mountain
Care Project
The Mountain Care Project is an endowment fund designed to support and assist environmental conservation organisations and initiatives promoting social diversity in mountainous regions. Initiated by the employees of Cimalpes, the Mountain Care Project aims to support selected organisations, focusing on these two core missions.
The mountains provide an extraordinary playground, yet tourism has a significant impact on their landscapes and ecosystems. Remarkable organisations work tirelessly to educate, preserve, and raise awareness among all audiences.
As an economic stakeholder whose activities rely on the attractiveness of our regions, it seems evident to us to contribute financially and actively participate in the missions of organisations dedicated to the protection and promotion of our Alpine regions.
Our goal : supporting
organisations
Environmental protection
The Mountain Care Project supports organisations actively working towards the protection of natural spaces and implementing long-term actions.

Funding
Cimalpes
As the driving force behind the project, Cimalpes contributes to the fund from its revenue. This translates to a €50 donation per transaction and €1 for each rental. Cimalpes' involvement in the Mountain Care Project constitutes one-third of the total funds raised.
Mandating property owners
Driven by their love for our mountains, property owners under Cimalpes rental management contribute a nominal fee (ranging from €5 to €50, depending on property type) per rental to the endowment fund.
Partners and suppliers
Cimalpes' partners and suppliers support the Mountain Care Project based on the business volume they generate through their collaboration with Cimalpes. This results in Cimalpes levying an "ecobonus" from its partners in support of organisations within the Mountain Care Project.
