Our Friends’ and Sponsors’ Committee

A number of personalities have chosen to support Abbé Pierre’s fight!

A number of personalities from the art world, the sports world, the media, as well as political and intellectual spheres, have chosen to support the Abbé’s fight to find housing for the most underprivileged, by joining their efforts in the action led by the Foundation that carries his name.

Each of them agreed to get involved as volunteers in the cause of inadequate housing. In our country, which ranks among the seven most highly developed nations, having decent housing still remains impossible for more than 3 million of our fellow citizens.

The Charter Committee

In 1989, associations decide to set up a professional code of ethics for collecting funds from the public: the Charter Committee is born.

Today, more than 50 social and humanitarian organizations make up this committee, which has two simple objectives:

  • To draft a professional code of ethics regarding appeals for public generosity, and for this code to be respected by giving a seal of approval each year to the member organisations;
  • To encourage public generosity by being worthy of its trust.

A member since 1997, the Fondation Abbé Pierre pour le Logement des Défavorisés has had its certification renewed regularly ever since.
