[Sponsorship] Bleuet de France

Born in 1917 in the trenches of Verdun, the Bleuet de France (Cornflower of France) has been, for over 100 years, the emblem of remembrance and solidarity with veterans and civilian victims of conflicts. It embodies the Nation and the sacrifice of those who fell for our freedom. With 25,000 beneficiaries, the Bleuet de France helps war wounded, both physically and psychologically, soldiers deployed on overseas operations, victims of terrorist attacks, war widows and widowers, wards of the nation, and bereaved families.

The Bleuet also carries out a mission of remembrance by supporting projects that promote the history and memory of contemporary conflicts and funds numerous cultural and educational projects, particularly for young people.

Thanks to donations, the association can fund higher education for some wards of the nation, provide equipment for wounded soldiers, and offer psychological support to victims of terrorism and their families.

In the language of flowers, the cornflower symbolizes "the messenger of all pure and delicate feelings." It is recognized as the flower of remembrance in France. Like the poppy, the cornflower was among the few flowers that continued to grow on the battlefields during the First World War (1914-1918). Its color also recalls the horizon blue uniform of young recruits during the First World War.
