Mission & Vision

Fondation de la Catho de Lille supports the Catholic University of Lille as well as its students. Its mission is to offer the resources needed to facilitate the development of both the student body and the school, furthering the values that the school embodies.

Actions Led

The foundation defines its action with the university around two objectives: strengthening the cultural, intercultural, ethical, and societal role of the Catholic University of Lille; and supporting, by all possible means, the activities of general interest in teaching, training and education, research, healthcare, and social and medico-social support, while respecting the founding principles to which the university adheres. 

The foundation also supports all philanthropic activities of the Catholic University of Lille and oversees seven sheltered foundations, all united by a shared commitment to promoting social, educational, and solidarity-driven causes.
