2025: Building on 15 years of commitment, let’s continue to work together

As we begin 2026, the Onet Foundation would like to extend its warmest wishes to you. May this new year bring you and your loved ones good health, success, and fulfillment.

But beyond the traditional New Year’s wishes, this January is also an opportunity to reflect on the progress we’ve made. In a social context where substandard housing and housing insecurity remain major challenges, 2025 has reminded us of a fundamental truth: solidarity is not just an empty word; it is a collective energy that is built on the ground.

2025: A Year of Solidarity in Action

The past year has been marked by a strong commitment from the Onet Group’s teams.

We are particularly proud of the success of our Solidarity & Housing Day on September 19. Thanks to the energy of nearly 400 volunteer employees, we successfully completed 25 community service projects in France and abroad. Whether through renovation, painting, or the refurbishment of living spaces, these initiatives have made a tangible difference in the daily lives of more than 5,700 beneficiaries.

2025 was also:

  • The rollout of the skills-based sponsorship program included the completion of three group projects with local organizations: the Onet teams in Lyon assembled 250 hygiene kits with Unisoap; the marketing and communications team supported Hop Hop Food in Marseille with its strategy to combat food waste; and the legal and compliance team sorted clothing with La Cravate Solidaire to promote the professional integration of people who are far from the job market.
  • Significant generosity during our major annual drives (hygiene products in March, food drives in November, and toy and book drives for the holiday season), providing much-needed emergency assistance.
  • Solidarity without borders, with renovation projects led by the Group’s subsidiaries in Brazil, Spain, Morocco, and Luxembourg, confirming that our commitment to decent housing transcends all geographical boundaries.

A Goal for 2026: Amplifying Our Impact

In 2026, the Onet Foundation will enter its sixteenth year of operation. Building on our 15 years of experience, we are more committed than ever to placing people at the heart of our approach.

Substandard housing isolates, weakens, and excludes people. As a corporate foundation, it is our responsibility to continue building lasting ties between the business community and the nonprofit sector. This year, we will expand our skills-based sponsorship initiatives and continue to support the shelters that do such admirable work every day.

Our values of respect and active listening will guide every initiative we undertake. We will continue to prioritize community engagement, convinced that it is through concrete, local actions that we can make a real difference.

Thank you for your commitment

None of this would be possible without you. Onet Group employees, volunteers, and partner organizations: you are the driving force behind this spirit of solidarity.

As we look ahead to 2026, we hope you’ll keep that spark that drives you to help others. Let’s continue, together, to provide a safer home and a brighter future for those who need it most.

Wishing everyone a wonderful and supportive 2026!

Mark your calendars: Solidarity & Housing Day 2026 will take place on September 18, 2026.
