#Online : Annual report 2025
In this 2025 Annual Report, you will find details of the Foundation’s initiatives and key performance metrics: the number of projects supported, the total amount of grants awarded, and their breakdown across the Foundation’s six areas of activity.
Cover picture : Marc Bloch (1886-1944), historian, medievalist, fervent republican and the “French Israelite” incarnate; he fought in both World Wars, founded the Annales School and journal with Lucien Febvre in 1929. Persecuted as a Jew during the Vichy regime, which stripped him of his professorship at the Sorbonne, and looted his library, in 1940, he wrote L’étrange défaite (Strange defeat), published posthumously in 1946, and joined the Resistance in Lyon in 1943. Betrayed, he was arrested by the Gestapo in March 1944. After months of torture, he was killed on 16 June 1944.
In June 2026, he was inducted into the Pantheon. The Foundation helped finance the documentary, Marc Bloch, au nom de la France, directed by Hugues Nancy (Nova productions).
