The Alcatel-Lucent Foundation is the philanthropic arm of Alcatel-Lucent and
it leads the company's charitable activities. With a focus on volunteerism, the
Foundation's mission is to support the commitment of Alcatel-Lucent to social
responsibility by serving and enhancing the communities where its employees and
customers live and work.
To accomplish its mission, the Foundation manages grants and employee
volunteerism on a global level. It receives its income from the corporation –
Alcatel-Lucent – whose name it bears. However, legally the Foundation is an
independent, charitable, non-profit and private entity and is governed by its
own board of trustees that is separate from the corporate board of
directors.
Global Foundation grants are dedicated to the main focus areas of the
Foundation and are managed by the Foundation. We currently are refining the
strategy of the Alcatel-Lucent Foundation and we invite you to check our site
in the future for the latest information regarding our grant making
program.
