For Dominic Thériault, Rimouski Branch Manager, children and family are very important. That is why he was chosen to be honorary chair of the 2021 edition of the crab at home supper, one of the Fondation du Centre de jeunesse du Bas-Saint-Laurent’s (Bas-Saint-Laurent youth centre foundation) key fundraising events, which took place on May 8.
This year, the event helped raise $32,000. A veritable success!
Dominic explains why he’s involved:
“I’m happy to support the Bas-Saint-Laurent youth centre, in concert with iA Financial Group, which also makes a donation on behalf of its employees who get involved.
As a father of five, this cause, which helps troubled youth, is very important to me. Every year, the crab supper organized for this organization allows us to raise a lot of money to support our youth directly in their community.”
Thank you to everyone who donated and congratulations to the many people and businesses who contributed to this successful event!
