Cécile Coldefy-Lefort

After studying at CELSA Sorbonne University and a career spanning more than 25 years that took her from journalism to fundraising via digital, Cécile Coldefy-Lefort joined SOLIDARITÉS INTERNATIONAL in June 2024 as Development and Communication Director.

A professional committed to development and communication in the public interest, she worked as Marketing and Mobilisation Manager at AFM Téléthon from September 2016 to May 2024. She also worked in a digital agency and then in marketing applied to fundraising.

After many years working for a variety of causes, I ‘fell in love’ with humanitarian aid. The expertise and agility of my colleagues, and their ability to take concrete action for the most vulnerable populations, have won my admiration and strengthened my commitment.

Accepting the responsibilities of Director of Development and Communication at SOLIDARITÉS INTERNATIONAL, becoming a humanitarian in my own right, means putting my skills at the service of its mission, making its fight better known and amplifying its voice to the widest possible audience. Finally, it means pooling the resources, energy and capacity for action of the collective behind its ambition: to build a more caring world where access to essential needs is guaranteed to everyone without discrimination.
