Bastien's Buddies

While Stéphane Petillon runs a computer company of 60 people, his 3-year-old son asks him why he would not give a job to his "street friends". With the confinement he thinks of integrating people far from employment through crafts. It is the pastry chef Arnaud Normand who joins his adventure and decides to go on chocolate.

Direct recruiter of people in great precariousness via an association (Entourage), Les Copains de Bastien have a volunteer coach in their workshop and work in a real chocolate factory in Paris. Les Copains de Bastien products are sold in stores as well as on their website.

Frosted sheep

A seamstress by training, Cynthia Born has created a zero-plastic insulated bag in French wool.

It all began when she was contacted by breeders from the Lot, who had woven a sheet with their wool. The latter needed to enhance their production because 80% of French wool goes to China. She then made them some clothes, before creating her insulated bag. Cynthia Born works as closely as possible with the actors: "We harvest our wool ourselves, we felt and cut it and we do the sewing in our workshops". Mouton givré manufactures insulated bags, bags, backpacks, and covers for bottles. 4,000 pieces are produced per year.

Colette Club

After 6 years in marketing at Blablacar, it was her 75-year-old neighbor who made Justine Renaudet aware of the loneliness of seniors. With Colette, she now helps students and young workers to find accommodation by cohabiting with retirees who have a room to rent. Their idea and mission: to help seniors stay at home as long as possible in good conditions by cohabitation by renting a free room to a young person.

They have thus created 1,200 pairs of cohabitants mainly in Paris and Ile-de-France. "Since the beginning, we have paid the hosts 2.5 million euros in rent. It is an additional purchasing power for seniors. Each rental is governed by a contract, a charter and internal regulations."

Deliver'Help

Yovann Pigenet founded the Delivr'Aide platform in 2021 after a two-year preparatory training at ENS. At the same time, he did a law degree at the Sorbonne and has always had an associative commitment to the Secours populaire. He then collected unsold items from local merchants and distributed them to the homeless.

The Covid crisis has arrived and a double observation has emerged: student precariousness and food waste. Initially, the online platform collected unsold food products from partner merchants. Then they added other products to their kits, such as hygiene products, computer equipment or accessories with a small defect. The Delivr'Aide app works like Uber or Deliveroo, but for free.

They now have 4 storage sites in Montreuil, Bagnolet, Nation and Cachan. In addition to Ile-de-France, they are also present in Montpellier, Lyon, Grenoble, Le Havre, Toulouse and will open in Strasbourg soon. They have about forty partner merchants including major brands: Carrefour, Auchan, Monoprix... And their plan for 2023 is to add books to their kits.
