We are passionate about creating a more inclusive and sustainable future for everyone.
We strive to develop talent, we help people reach the stars by generating emotions and commitment. We strongly believe that communication enables the spread and reiteration of culture.

Our Commitment
Genre humain's involvement in the community is a crucial part of our identity.
Over the last few years, Genre humain's two founders have been involved in many social causes. Their pro bono work inspires and empowers them, it adds to their expertise and offers them insight to people and organizations tackling today’s urgent challenges in Good Health & Well Being, Education, Gender Equality, Reduced Inequalities and Human Rights.
Want a few examples?
Valérie sits on the Board and the Governance Committee of Directors of Doctors of the World, an organization that aims to provide and promote access to health care for excluded and vulnerable people, here in Canada and around the world.
Tanya sits on the Governing Board of a local CSMB (Centre de services scolaire Marguerite-Bourgeoys) public school that servers young children within her community.
Genre humain's two founders are committing themselves to:
always act with their purpose and values in mind
do more than 60 hours of pro bono volunteering work every year
participate frequently in fundraisers and volunteer their time to projects within their local communities
annually donate a minimum of 5% of their profits to causes aligned with their purpose and CSR commitments
We are always looking for new ways to make a positive impact on the causes we hold dear. You have ideas? Projects to propose? Let's talk!
