The Mountain
Care Project
Mountain Care Project is dedicated to assisting and supporting organizations committed to environmental protection and the promotion of social diversity in mountain communities. Our work is also guided by a geographic requirement: the projects we support are locally based in our region, the Northern French Alps.
Associations are selected through a collaborative process involving Cimalpes property owners, as well as our partners and suppliers, who support the project. The selection process also involves a steering committee of 10 members and our internal employees.
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 commitments
Mountain Care Project is dedicated to supporting organizations committed to protecting the mountain environment.
Through concrete and sustainable initiatives, these organizations help protect Alpine ecosystems, raise public awareness, and assist local communities in facing the environmental challenges of the future.
Mountain Care Project supports associations that make mountain
trails accessible to everyone, allowing people to discover the region’s natural beauty, landscapes, and values.
The organisation selection process
October to December: Project call
January: Internal review of association projects
February: Selection of the associations and allocation of funds
March: Allocation of funding and meetup with associations
Spring/Summer: Launch of collaborative initiatives between the Mountains Care Project and the associations supported
The associations supported by Mountain Care Project meet three requirements:
A geographic requirement
We support associations active locally in our region: the Northern French Alps.
Two thematic requirements
We support associations working to protect the environment, and/or promote social diversity in mountain communities.
Our approach
The endowment fund is supported by a steering committee composed of 10 Cimalpes employees.
Bringing together complementary expertise from various departments within the company, we share a common goal: to develop projects that have a positive impact on our region.
