Our mutual insurance association is pleased to announce, together with SDED (Société de développement économique de Drummondville), that it has donated $25,000 to support the Fonds Mentorat Desjardins fund. This money will available to mentored companies until 2023.
Over the past two years, this financial support has enabled mentees to acquire various equipment (software and the like), take part in promotional events, get specialized training, and more. In practical terms, the money paid into the fund is used to carry out specific projects promoting the growth of mentored businesses that do not have access to conventional financing. Our financial contribution will go a long way in developing the full potential of young entrepreneurs.
