Québec, December 3, 2024 — Thanks to the incredible generosity of its employees, Promutuel Insurance is delighted to announce that its most recent Centraide Workplace Campaign has raised a record $115,130 in direct donations. At a time when the needs of community organizations have never been greater, Promutuel Insurance chose to go even further, doubling the amount raised by its staff and adding a special contribution to the Critical Impact Fund, bringing the total to $245,000 for Centraide.
"It is with great pride that we salute this outpouring of generosity. Promutuel Insurance employees perfectly embody the values of solidarity and benevolence that define us. The results of this Centraide 2024 campaign testify to their determination to be there for those who need it most. A heartfelt thank you to each and every one of you," declared CEO Geneviève Fortier.
Most of the money will be donated to Centraide Québec et Chaudière-Appalaches, which supports over 225 community organizations committed to fighting poverty, exclusion and social inequality. An additional $70,390 will be donated to Centraide of Greater Montreal, in accordance with the donors’ place of residence.
"Once again this year, Promutuel Insurance is matching the donations collected by its employees and renewing its commitment with an additional $10,000 contribution to the Centraide Critical Impact Fund. This fund is essential to support organizations, in these difficult economic times, which are redoubling their efforts to ensure that everyone can meet their basic needs," added Ms. Fortier.
Alexandra Larochelle, Partnership and Development Coordinator at Centraide Québec et Chaudière-Appalaches, also emphasized the importance of this support: "Inflation is taking its toll on the cost of living, particularly food, transport and housing. Many Quebecers are turning for the first time to community organizations, which are struggling to meet growing demand. We wish to thank Promutuel Insurance and its employees for their generosity, which makes a concrete difference in the lives of so many people.”
For over 30 years, Promutuel Insurance has been organizing Centraide Workplace Campaigns, with the conviction that it's essential to be there for your community when it needs you most. Together, employees and the organization remain committed every year to supporting this crucial cause with generosity and dedication.
