The two Desjardins Caisses in the Charlevoix region have begun their call for applications period for the 2024 Desjardins Foundation Awards.
The Desjardins Foundation Awards are aimed at anyone working in a school, as well as organization stakeholders. They can have access to financial assistance of up to $3,000 to carry out an initiative with kindergarten, elementary or secondary students.
“This is an opportunity not to be missed as it could bring in up to $3,000 in prizes. The winners are determined by the vote of employees and administrators from the entire Desjardins network. It’s a great way for us to support our community in its initiatives,” adds Caroline Rossetti, community life advisor for Caisses Desjardins in the Charlevoix region.
In 2023, a total of 626 initiatives were supported. Of this number, six Charlevoix projects were able to benefit from a grant, the sum of which reached $18,000.
People interested in submitting their project are invited to consult the Desjardins Foundation page until October 31. The winners will be revealed to the general public at the beginning of 2025.
