Emotion and energy to rebuild Notre-Dame

We are very moved and affected by the tragedy that affected the Notre-Dame Cathedral, which was partially destroyed on April 15. The damage is indeed immense: two-thirds of the framework, partly dating back more than eight centuries, burned and the spire, which was more than 100 meters high, collapsed. Our thoughts today turn to the reconstruction effort to be carried out and all the teams in charge of this work.

The Fondation de France, which houses us, has just opened a dedicated fund to allow donors to express their generosity and contribute collectively to this reconstruction. To this end, the Fondation de France relies on its know-how and is one of the four organisations authorised to launch a national and international subscription.

From the Daniel and Nina Carasso Foundation, we support and will contribute to this appeal for donations.

We invite all those who wish to participate.
