Article

The Organizing Committee has decided to officially support three charities and one foundation: Just World International, the Secours Populaire, the P'tits Cracks and Hippolia Foundation. In this context, these four structures will benefit from the great visibility that offers the Alltech FEI World Equestrian Games 2014 in Normandy, in order to educate the general public about the many actions they take on every day to support their cause !

The three associations and Hippolia Foundation will all be present from 23 August to 7 September in the Games Village of Caen.
