Together for a Sustainable Future

The year 2025 will undoubtedly be remembered as a pivotal year for our association. It was marked by two key milestones essential for ensuring our long-term impact: moving into new premises, providing a more suitable environment for our activities, and strengthening our permanent team with the arrival of two new staff members. These developments have supported the growth of our organization while staying true to our core mission: making volunteering accessible to everyone.

Thanks to these strengthened foundations, we were able to reinforce our existing projects — such as the Street Team, Kids Activities, and other flagship initiatives — while also launching new actions aimed at strengthening community ties, notably through the Social Running Club. The impact of our activities has been amplified, with a 36% increase in the number of impact-driven projects we have carried out. This positive momentum also translated into a historic milestone: for the first time, our association mobilised more than 2,000 active volunteers.

Looking ahead, 2026 promises to be an exciting year. We plan to build on what we have sown by focusing on three key strategic areas: Community Building, Promoting Inclusion, and Environmental Protection. New projects will soon be launched in each of these areas and will be unveiled in the coming weeks and months. This ambition aligns perfectly with the United Nations’ International Year of Volunteers for Sustainable Development. More than ever, our goal is clear: to make every citizen an agent of change and continue building, together, a more inclusive and sustainable society.

Happy New Year to all! Together, let’s continue transforming our cities and neighbourhoods for a sustainable future that benefits everyone.
