Foundation Signs Partnership with Un Rien C’est Tout

Women’s Cardiovascular Healthcare Foundation (Agir pour le Cœur des Femmes) has signed a partnership with Un Rien C’est Tout, a nonprofit organization that will produce a brochure about the cardiovascular risks women face. It will help women evaluate their situation and pay careful attention to their bodies at three key hormone stages: choosing contraception, going through pregnancy and entering menopause. A donation link will be featured on the La Redoute website to collect funds to create the brochure. Un Rien C’est Tout co-creates solidarity projects with social impact in collaboration with partner organizations working in France in four areas: health, human dignity, childhood and education, and environment.
