Groupe SOS
Our governance
Groupe SOS, a zero-shareholder, non-profit group, is a Union of non-profit organisations. It brings together NPOs, social enterprises and facilities that pool their strengths and work together to share different practices and experiences for the benefit of all.
Governance of Groupe SOS non-profit organisations and social enterprises
Groupe SOS non-profit organisations and social enterprises each have their own governance bodies: a president, a vice-president, a steering committee, etc. These bodies, as expected, ensure control and provide guidance. All Groupe SOS organisations are represented on the Board of Directors of the Groupe SOS Union.
