Fondation Famille Godin
A Foundation Committed to Helping Children and Adolescents in Need
The Fondation Famille Godin was founded in 2000 with a primary goal: to support children and adolescents facing difficulties. The foundation continues to pursue this mission today by assisting organizations working in health, education, or poverty alleviation. By helping these young individuals and their families, the foundation aims to restore hope and create a brighter future.
Over the years, the Fondation Famille Godin has supported nearly 450 different organizations. Their actions extend throughout Quebec and across Canada, always with the future of today’s youth at the heart of their initiatives.
Supporting Youth Development
The foundation firmly believes that a positive impact on young people today will help nurture responsible, healthy, and educated adults tomorrow. They place particular importance on encouraging stimulating and unifying projects, helping youths build self-esteem and autonomy necessary for their personal growth.
By investing in these initiatives, the foundation envisions a stronger community — one that is healthier, more educated, and fair for all its members.
The Mission of the Fondation Famille Godin
Advancing Education
One of the main pillars of the foundation’s mission is supporting educational projects. By providing resources and collaborating with organizations focused on learning and academic empowerment, the foundation helps children and teenagers access better educational opportunities.
Improving Health
The foundation is also dedicated to improving the health and well-being of young people. By partnering with initiatives that provide medical support or promote healthy lifestyles, the foundation works to ensure every child and adolescent has a chance at a healthy future.
Alleviating Poverty
Combating poverty is another cornerstone of the foundation’s efforts. They support projects targeting families and youths from disadvantaged backgrounds, giving them tools and support to overcome challenges and achieve their potential.
Eligibility Criteria and Application Process
To benefit from the support of the Fondation Famille Godin, organizations must meet a set of strict criteria. Priority is given to groups recognized by the Canada Revenue Agency as registered charities, focusing on children and adolescents aged 0 to 17 years. Projects must have a clear educational or health objective, or aim to alleviate poverty.
Other requirements include responsible management practices, the ability to present audited financial statements, and the capacity to assess and measure the concrete impact of their initiatives.
Keep in mind that due to the large number of requests, not all applications can be accepted. Each submission is carefully reviewed by the foundation’s team, and the final decision rests with the founding members.
