Intern - Project and communication officer Fondation CMA CGM
Led by Rodolphe Saadé, the CMA CGM Group, a global leader in shipping and logistics, serves more than 420 ports around the world on five continents. With its subsidiary CEVA Logistics, a world leader in logistics, and its air freight division CMA CGM AIR CARGO, the CMA CGM Group is continually innovating to offer its customers a complete and increasingly efficient range of new shipping, land, air and logistics solutions.
Committed to the energy transition in shipping, and a pioneer in the use of alternative fuels, the CMA CGM Group has set a target to become Net Zero Carbon by 2050.
Through the CMA CGM Foundation, the Group acts in humanitarian crises that require an emergency response by mobilizing the Group’s shipping and logistics expertise to bring humanitarian supplies around the world.
Present in 160 countries through its network of more than 400 offices and 750 warehouses, the Group employs more than 155,000 people worldwide, including 4,000 in Marseilles where its head office is located.
Chaired by Tanya Saadé Zeenny, the CMA CGM Foundation was established in 2005 and is primarily committed to humanitarian aid and education. It embodies and translates into concrete actions the family and solidarity values of the CMA CGM Group, a global leader in transport and logistics.
In times of crisis, the Foundation leverages the CMA CGM Group’s expertise to deliver essential humanitarian supplies. It also supports access to quality education, training and professional integration, as well as educational and social innovation.
To date, the Foundation has shipped 100,000 tons of humanitarian aid to 100 countries, supported over 550 educational projects in France, Lebanon, and worldwide, and assisted 55 entrepreneurs through its social incubator, Le Phare. Among its major initiatives, the Foundation is also developing groundbreaking social innovations:
L’Entrepôt Solidaire, the first shared logistics platform in France bringing together five leading food aid organizations, and
PharmaBox, a shipping container transformed into a mobile, energy-autonomous pharmacy, developed with Action Against Hunger, soon to be deployed across Africa.
