Offering educational and sports programs to support children's development and open up new opportunities

The École ROUGE & BLEU is an innovative initiative combining physical and educational activities for children aged 7 to 11 facing social difficulties.

Complementing the “traditional” school system, its aim is to use sport to restore these children’s confidence, reconnect them with learning, and pass on essential values for their success in school and everyday life.

Since its launch in 2016, nearly 1,300 children benefit from this program each year. PSG for Communities now wishes to inaugurate its 3rd École ROUGE & BLEU within the Necker–Enfants Malades Hospital, a long-standing partner, in order to promote diversity and inclusion through sport. This program would allow hospitalized children, often affected by serious illnesses, to meet other children and thus develop greater mutual understanding, while fostering learning and solidarity. It is a unique experience that breaks down barriers between the hospital and the city, opening new perspectives for the children.
