Investing for the future

At L’Oréal, we have long been committed to making a positive contribution to society but the time has come to accelerate our efforts. We want to demonstrate that companies can be part of the solution to the challenges the world is facing and, to do so, we are allocating more than 200 million euros to address urgent social and environmental needs.

To address urgent social challenges, we have created L'Oréal Fund for Women, a 130 million euro charitable endowment fund to support on the ground organizations and local charities helping highly vulnerable women.

Created in 2020 to address social emergencies exacerbated by the pandemic, L’Oréal renewed this endowment for a period of five years (2026-2030) with the aim to contribute, among other philanthropic supports, to enhancing the well-being, empowerment and resilience of 5 million women by 2030.

The L'Oréal Fund for Women is dedicated to transforming the lives of women and girls in highly vulnerable situations. In a context where inequality gaps are widening and women’s rights are still often challenged, this commitment aims to strengthen civil society’s fundings, that remain critical.

To amplify its impact and address these challenges and working with expert associations and NGOs, the Fund will focus on four key areas of impact: economic empowerment, education, fight against violence, and access to sexual and reproductive health.

The L’Oréal Fund for Nature Regeneration

We believe reducing our impact is necessary, but insufficient and that the damage that has already been done needs to be repaired. To help tackle this problem, we want to go beyond our efforts to reduce our impact on biodiversity across our value chain and contribute to repairing natural ecosystems. This is why we are creating the L’Oréal Fund for Nature Regeneration. As a 50 million euro impact investment fund, it will simultaneously generate positive social and environmental impact as well as economic returns with a single purpose: to support projects restoring degraded marine and terrestrial habitats. More specifically, the portfolio will include projects that support the restoration of degraded land, the regeneration of mangroves as well the restoration of marine areas and forests.

Climate Emergency Fund

In 2025 alone, 358 natural hazard-related disasters were recorded globally. The human toll is also accelerating, with over 110 million people affected in 2025, with 85% linked to climate-related events (storms, floods, droughts, wildfires and extreme temperatures).

It is against this backdrop that L'Oréal's Climate Emergency Fund is working to make a difference. In September 2023, L'Oréal launched a 15 million-euro endowment fund to support vulnerable communities to develop greater resilience in the face of climate disasters. Since 2023, the Fund has backed more than 30 projects across 32 countries.

In 2026, L'Oréal renewed its Climate Emergency Fund with an additional €20 million committed through 2030, reaffirming its dedication to supporting the world's most vulnerable communities in the face of escalating climate-driven disasters.

Backed by three years of successful field-testing and rigorous solution validation with our partners, the Fund is launching its next phase: scaling proven models by strengthening both risk prevention and emergency response.

Solstice Fund

In 2024, L'Oréal Groupe and Chenavari Investment Managers announced the launch of Solstice, a debt fund designed to enable suppliers to accelerate the decarbonization of their significant industrial projects. L'Oréal is committing an initial investment of €50 million to the Solstice fund to deliver on Scope 3 commitments by enabling its extended value chain, and in particular small and medium-sized enterprises, to more easily access financing.

By spearheading the creation of the Solstice decarbonization fund, L'Oréal Groupe and Chenavari, a long-standing European credit specialist, are addressing a significant gap in the market. Through Solstice, industrial suppliers, including L’Oréal partners, may access financial solutions to help them implement decarbonization initiatives. Qualifying projects can include industrial processes and supply chain, clean energy and clean transportation. The fund is open to further investment by institutional investors, including other corporates who, like L’Oreal Groupe, aim to support the decarbonization of their ecosystems.
