The Caisses d’Epargne Foundation for Social Solidarity, an institution granted the official seal of state approval in April 2001, focuses its efforts on fighting all forms of dependency and social exclusion related to old age, illness, disability or illiteracy.
The Foundation is distinguished by the diverse channels it uses to pursue its activities.

• The Foundation is a not-for-profit operator in the social healthcare sector.
  With a headcount of 4,300, it manages a network comprising 89 establishments and services. It is directly involved in the fight against social exclusion, designing and implementing grass-roots operations, such as the Savoirs pour réussir (Knowledge for Success) initiative within the campaign against illiteracy. 
• It selects, appraises and finances innovative projects, drawing on the donations from the Caisses d'Epargne and their subsidiaries.

It is also able to act as an umbrella organization for other foundations. Thus, at a regional level, ten foundations operating under the aegis of the Caisse d’Epargne Foundation have been created by individual French savings banks: the Caisse d’Epargne Provence Alpes Corse Réunion Guadeloupe Foundation, the Caisse d’Epargne Rhône Alpes Lyon Foundation, the Caisse d’Epargne Languedoc-Roussillon Foundation for Autonomy, the Caisse d’Epargne Aquitaine-Poitou-Charentes Foundation, the Caisse d’Epargne Loire Drôme Ardèche Foundation, the Caisse d’Epargne de Haute-Normandie Foundation, the Caisse d’Epargne de Basse-Normandie Foundation, the Auvergne Limousin Foundation, the Caisse d’Epargne Loire-Centre Foundation and the Vivre Longtemps (Live a Long Time) Foundation.
