Through its endowment fund "Chaleur Partagée," GROUPE ATLANTIC aims to contribute to society through philanthropic actions, whether through in-kind or financial donations. Chaleur Partagée supports projects to combat energy precarity in France around three main axes:

  • Assistance in social integration through access to housing.
  • Assistance in reducing energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions.
  • Assistance in professional integration through support, education, and training in the field of climate engineering.

In 2023, our endowment fund supported numerous projects with donations valued at €200K.

We currently collaborate with 10 accredited associations.

 

  • In France, since 2024, Chaleur Partagée has been a member of "STOP Exclusion Énergétique"*.

    It's a collective of 60 organizations - public and private - working in the fields of solidarity, territories, ecology, economy and research, all involved in the fight against fuel poverty in France : 

    ' To change the scale of the fight against fuel poverty, we need to work together in alliances that bring together NGOs, public and private organizations. Stop Exclusion Énergétique is delighted to welcome GROUPE ATLANTIC. We need industrialists to take massive actions! '.

  • The Alynea association provides assistance to homeless individuals in the Lyon metropolis and the Rhône department, working towards their reintegration. In collaboration with Entreprise des Possibles, Chaleur Partagée was able to support this large-scale project led by the association. The renovation of the building has allowed for the opening of 10 housing units for single women and 25 units for women with young children.

    We donated 35 Atlantic brand water heaters to equip these units.

  • Réseau Éco Habitat is an association member of the STOP Energy Exclusion collective.

    We contributed to the renovation of 2 homes in Oise with this association by donating several products: thermodynamic water heater, boiler, and towel warmer. Thanks to these renovations, the Energy Performance Diagnosis (DPE) of the first home improved from G to D, and that of the second home improved from F to C!

  • Are you familiar with skills-based volunteering? "Chaleur Partagée" also addresses the needs of associations by donating expertise.

    Our latest action with "Habitat et Humanisme" is the perfect example, as we donated... our skills!

    In 2023, a donation of radiators and towel warmers from our Thermor brand was made to the Loiret branch of the association to equip 5 apartments in a residence in Orléans.

    Volunteers from Habitat et Humanisme Loiret also needed help replacing old radiators with the new ones. Our Orléans site responded positively: 6 of our employees with the necessary skills assisted the association for a full day. Congratulations to them!

  • Macmillan Support Cancer has become the official charity of our UK&ROI business unit: various fundraising events are organized across the three industrial sites and by the six brands of the Group to raise awareness among as many colleagues, families, and friends as possible, such as walks, running races, football championships, and more.

    Aligned with our goal of tackling the challenge of thermal comfort for all, Macmillan utilizes the funds raised to provide heating grants to help individuals with cancer heat their homes.

Beyond its philanthropic actions, GROUPE ATLANTIC is deeply attentive to international events and strives to contribute to humanitarian aid for populations in need. Thus, during the year 2022, we:

  • Donated €230K to assist Ukrainian populations (€102K from employees and €128K from the Group), and delivered 200 convector heaters from our Odessa site to the Ukrainian association "Fortechnyi" (Electricians of the World network).
  • Donated €85,700 to assist victims of the earthquake in Turkey and Syria (€35,700 from employees and €50K from the Group).
