For forty years, La Guilde has supported associations in designing their projects, seeking funding, and capitalizing on their experiences. This incubation process includes information meetings, individual support, training, funding, field visits, and best practice workshops.
Our support
Individual support
We offer individual support by telephone, video conference, or at La Guilde's premises in Levallois. For all associations outside the Île-de-France and Corsica regions, this support can be provided by the RRMA. This support allows you to take a step back and helps you reflect on:
- the design of your project
- its writing
- its implementation
- The link with the SDGs
- The viability of the project
- The follow-up
Information meeting
We offer information meetings on our calls for projects in Paris, in the regions, or via videoconference. These meetings are an opportunity to present:
- The program
- the eligibility criteria for microproject grants
- the funding application procedure

- the project selection process
- project monitoring
