Sign our Manifesto for the recognition of Sustainable Enterprises!
​
To create systemic change, we advocate for a new policy framework that recognizes and incentivizes sustainable companies in Switzerland. Therefore we launched a Manifesto for the Recognition of Sustainable Enterprises. We call on all Swiss decision-makers to support our initiative and sign the manifesto.
Fondation Saint-Louis
Since its creation in 1990, the Fondation St-Louis has been recognised as a public utility and is included in the cantonal planning of institutions for people with disabilities. The St-Louis Foundation is recognised by the State of Fribourg for the mandates entrusted to it, namely: the reception, occupation and reintegration of adults with psychological and/or social difficulties.

Type of Pledge

Core business
Goal 2
By 2027, our main kitchen writes and meets the requirements of our responsible procurement charter, which was developed on the principles of environmental sustainability to optimise energy and resource efficiency*.
* Inspired by the Beelong Eco-Score®, the Fait Maison label, the Canton of Fribourg's collective catering charter and other sustainability reports in the field.
Supply chain
Goal 3
By 2025, we increase the share of renewable energy in our main facility to 95 %, compared with 60 % in 2022.
Internal operations
Goal 4
By 2025, each beneficiary and staff member actively participates in at least one collective event per year, raising the awareness of the regional community on the challenges of SDG 5, 12, and 15 at the local level.
Collective Action
The St-Louis Foundation operates in Switzerland. The pledges taken within the STI framework relate to the sustainability policy applying to all the St-Louis Foundation operations carried out in Switzerland. The company is therefore accountable for their implementation within the limits of its scope of activity.
Note: By 2023 systematically indicates the end of the year, meaning: By the end of 2023 (unless otherwise defined, such as fiscal year)
