Sanofi employees volunteer their time, energy, talents and skills through programs that benefit communities in need.

Through global or local initiatives, employees make a difference and contribute to their communities.

Sanofi encourages employees’ commitment and call on their generosity in case of humanitarian crises and to

support access to healthcare for disadvantage populations. Moreover, through different global and local

initiatives, employees can apply their personal expertise and take on a one-off or even a long-term commitment

by volunteering or collaborating with a solidarity project.

or who are living with a disability. Employees had the option of collaborating with an external organization, or with Enfants

de Sanofi, an internal not-for-profit organization that provides support to employees’ children with medical, educational or

social needs.

community relations around its sites and encourages employees’ volunteering engagement.

III. SKILL-BASED SPONSORSHIP PROGRAMS

1. Global Programs

The Corporate Social Responsibility and the Human Resources department have launched in November 2017 a Skills-

based Sponsorship@Sanofi program to connect selected NGOs and start-ups with skilled volunteers for the short-term

placements.

The objective of this program is to provide Sanofi employees with the opportunity to take part in innovation and general

interest projects by sharing their skills, time, and energy to serve economic or social developments and also to develop

their learning agility and innovation thinking in new environments. Participants need to have been with Sanofi for one year

to be able to take part to this program.

Thanks to Sanofi employees’ engagement, skills-based Sponsorship@Sanofi strengthens our commitment to the

economic and social ecosystem by contributing to the development of NGOs, associations, SMEs and startups, partners

of Sanofi and of the Sanofi Espoir Foundation, engaged in the field of health.

The outcomes of the pilot program, available in two French sites, will help us further define our approach for deployment

in France and Internationally.

An internal website was designed to inform the employees in order to discover our proposed missions and the practical

modalities.

2. Local Programs

United States

The Sanofi Genzyme/Dimock Fellowship Program

The Dimock Center, Massachusetts’ largest provider of substance use, mental health, and developmental disability

services within a community health center setting serves 17,000 patients each year, mostly from low-income and

individual families.

In 2017, 6 Sanofi Genzyme employees provided skills-based support, advice, and training to employees at the Dimock

Center in three priority areas: Human Resources, Strategic Planning, and Communications & Marketing.

Our goal is to engage corporations more deeply with The Dimock Center, leveraging their expertise while also giving their

employees the opportunity to more deeply engage with our work in the community,” said Raquel Rosenblatt, Vice

President of Institutional Advancement at the Dimock Center.

Sanofi Genzyme Fellows share a common purpose: to have a long-term, fundamental impact on The Dimock Center’s

growth and success. From the outset, the Program was structured to allow for a deeper commitment than just a one-day,

volunteer.
