Take a break and build your own mental self-care toolkit 🌟 At Epic Foundation , we are deeply aligned with the mission of The Jed Foundation (JED) , empowering youth to navigate life’s challenges and cultivate emotional well-being. Physical health is a priority for many of us, with exercise, nutrition, and regular check-ups at the forefront. But what about #MentalHealth? The JED Foundation has developed a practical guide to help you shape your own mental health toolkit.

Take a break and get inspired by this success story! 🌟🌟 Andrew’s journey highlights the power of education and community leadership, reflecting our commitment at Epic Foundation to shaping futures through these efforts. His connection with CFK Africa began with a passion for football and a strong desire to learn. Despite financial challenges, he earned a CFK Africa scholarship, completed ICT training, and continued his studies in Nairobi. Andrew later returned to the organization as a volunteer, leading STEM sessions and mentoring new scholarship recipients. Due to his dedication, he was awarded CFK Africa’s “Community Champion” award in July 2024. CFK Africa, part of our #Children and #Youth portfolio, is dedicated to improving access to public health, education, and economic opportunities across Kenya. At Epic, by supporting initiatives like CFK Africa, we aim to empower individuals like Andrew to bring positive change to their communities.

🌟 #EpicSupporters in the #MarathonPourTous 🌟 #Paris2024 continues to revolutionize the Olympic experience with the Marathon Pour Tous, an event that allows amateur runners to race on the same course as the Olympic marathon at night. This event transforms the public’s experience by enabling as many people as possible to participate, promoting inclusivity and allowing them to follow in the footsteps of outstanding athletes. This Saturday, two of our Epic Foundation supporters, Gérald Mathieu, CEO of Barclays Monaco, and Vincent COLETTE, will run 42 km, dedicating this race to Generation France. They are transforming this experience into an opportunity to raise funds for this great nonprofit organization. Generation France, the newest addition to our #Children and #Youth portfolio, is redefining the path from education to employment by empowering disadvantaged youth and helping companies find entry-level talent. We are beyond proud to have them rallying for our cause. Join us in celebrating this amazing event and let’s cheer on our #EpicSupporters ! 🎉👏

Take a Break and Learn Something New! 🌟💡 “We believe that in order to create inclusive spaces in which young people can thrive and succeed, we must be mindful of how we communicate with, and about, young people” - ThinkForward UK ThinkForward UK, one of the #nonprofits in our #Children and #Youth portfolio, developed a guide on using #empoweringlanguage. Asset-based language focuses on young people's strengths and potential, highlighting opportunities and addressing systemic issues. On the other hand, deficit-based language points out what's missing or wrong, focusing on problems and putting responsibility on the individual. This guide shows that focusing on #strengths can boost academic and #socialsuccess 🚀 For example: ✅ Do say ➜ young people ❌ Don't say ➜ kids 💡 Want to learn more?

Celebrating our #SummerRooftops ☀️ The #OlympicGames2024 have been a fantastic opportunity to gather our international and powerful like-minded communities: #Donors, #Ambassadors, #Entrepreneurs, and #Investors, in the heart of Paris for insightful conversations on how we can make a positive impact. 🌟 Last week, we were delighted to host our #SummerRooftops, organized alongside Epic Foundation , blisce/, Mission M, and INFIИITE. These events were highlighted by the presence of Christian Louboutin, who shared his powerful and inspiring perspective as a designer and entrepreneur. We also had the privilege of welcoming Alain Ducasse, one of the most celebrated and influential chefs with 18 Michelin stars, to the stage. Our guests had the opportunity to exchange ideas while enjoying the vibrant atmosphere of the Olympic Games, all with an unbeatable view of Paris (they could even catch a glimpse of the rise of the Olympic Cauldron!). Merci à toutes et à tous d'être venus !
