National Bank donates $ 40,000 to Fondation Jeunes en Tête
Like many sporting events scheduled this summer, the 10th edition of the NB Grand Tour will be postponed to the summer of 2021. Despite the deferral, National Bank is donating $ 40,000 to our Foundation to ensure the pursuit of our mission. This amount will allow us to support the Partners for Life program and make a strong comeback in schools after summer!
For the past 10 years, this major event helped support the cause of young people in difficulty, thanks to the involvement of its participants: the employees and volunteers of National Bank. Each year, many of them cycle dozens of kilometres (and more recently, run as well) to help various local organizations involved in the cause.
“NB Grand Tour is a true tradition at National Bank and it is with enthusiasm and energy that a large number of employees get involved every year. The exceptional situation we are experiencing leads us to postpone our event, but above all it reminds us of the importance of supporting a cause that has been close to our hearts for so many years.” Danny Déry, Vice-President, Employee experience Consulting Center, National Bank
Particularly grateful for this commitment, the Foundation’s team would like to salute and thank National Bank and its employees for their invaluable support.
Let us remain united and prevent psychological distress among youth together.
