This year, Michel will ride from Saint-Georges to Matane to raise money. He told us what drives him to dedicate himself to this cause:
“I’ll be riding with my friend Jimmy and the crew for all our friends at Adaptavie who, unlike some of us, weren’t all lucky enough to have the health needed to play sports, which is among my favourite pastimes.
Personally, I use this good fortune to help make a difference by participating in this amazing activity. I’d like to take a moment to thank Jimmy, because each of these events has made me a better philanthropist. This year, I’m getting involved with the same drive as always to help these disabled kids, youths and adults who have specific needs when it comes to buying sporting equipment—giving them access to activities, motivating them to keep at it throughout their life.
I encourage you to help me reach my goal by giving generously on my page. Thank you from the bottom of my heart, as my old friend Raymond would say!!!”
We’d like to remind you that iA Financial Group makes a donation to the foundation for each employee who volunteers, in accordance with our policy for employees who get involved in their community.
Way to go Michel, Isabelle and Geneviève! Have a great ride!
