Helping to break the cycle of homelessness with a major donation to Old Brewery Mission

March 8, 2024

At iA Financial Group, we’re dedicated to supporting a tight community and social fabric. That’s why we’re proud to financially support Montreal’s Old Brewery Mission with a major donation.

Our contribution of $180,000 over three years will help improve day-to-day urban health through the mission’ prevention programs, emergency services with psychosocial support and rehousing initiatives.

Old Brewery Mission works with people in the city experiencing or at risk of experiencing homelessness by supporting them in concrete ways along their path toward lasting social reintegration and housing stability.
