The symbol of The Nature of Tomorrow Campaign is a vibrant flower and child's hand, underlining the fact that our children's future depends upon the actions and decisions we take today.

Le logo de la campagne La nature de l'avenir - une fleur que tient une main d'enfant - nous rappelle que l'avenir que nous souhaitons pour nos enfants dépend des décisions et des actions que nous prenons aujourd'hui. Cet avenir dépend aussi de la compréhension et de la générosité des souscripteurs à cette grande campagne. Nos enfants seront reconnaissants de tels engagements envers la nature de leur avenir.
