Grant and Funding Programs Offered by Fondation de la Famille Lemaire (FFL)

The Fondation de la Famille Lemaire contributes to Quebec’s funding ecosystem by linking private philanthropy with education, health, Alzheimer-related research, and entrepreneurial development. Its Bourses Lemaire program supports entrepreneurs who want to pursue studies connected to the needs and ambitions of their businesses, helping them step back, build skills, and improve the long-term viability of their projects. The foundation also supports organizations and initiatives in health and education, which broadens its impact beyond direct business aid and into the human-capital side of economic development. For the funding landscape, this creates a useful bridge: entrepreneurs can access support that is not limited to equipment or working capital, while research and community partners benefit from mission-driven philanthropic capital focused on durable social and economic outcomes.
