“We are proud that each of the four Québec casinos has made a concrete gesture towards the food bank in their region with the goal of keeping the partnership 4 casinos, 4 Moisson, initiated in 2014, alive and well. All profits from these activities will enable us to develop sustainable solutions for those who find themselves in precarious situations in Montreal and Quebec, stated Dany Michaud, Executive Director of Moisson Montréal. Thank you SCQ for your support in our fight against food insecurity, which affects close to 400,000 people across Quebec!”
The Par pur Plaisir… de donner! Day will gather close to 200 employees who will donate their time to carry out various activities from sorting food to meal preparation, as well as the collection of foodstuffs from supermarkets across the province.
“I am honoured to go out and meet the employees that I have often had the opportunity to interact with in the casinos. Today, these good-hearted people are rallying together to help the community in their region. I was raised in a home where mutual assistance counted heavily. I was taught at a young age to be proactive in meeting the real needs of others and help my neighbour. I am even more proud to be here today and encourage the employees of the Québec casinos.”, said Gregory Charles.
It is worth mentioning that the SCQ, who was already offering timely support to certain regional Moisson food banks by way of activities soliciting their employees’ engagement, has chosen to support the food insecurity cause in a sustainable way and make a commitment towards the following four Moisson food banks: Montreal, Saguenay, Outaouais and Laurentides. The first phase of the partnership involves the organization of recurring events benefitting said organisation, such as volunteerism activities, foodstuffs collection and fundraising campaigns. On September 9th, 2015, the SCQ invited some 20 partners and suppliers to participate in the annual golf antitournament Far from the Greens, Close to the Heart (Loin des verts, près du cœur), which raised $37,500. The second phase of engagement will require other Quebec companies and organisations to join the movement, created by the SCQ, alongside the four Moisson of Quebec in the fight against food insecurity.
In this solidarity spirit, Moisson Montréal receives today a $25,000 donation of from the Casino de Montréal! The money comes from, among others, a multitude of slot machine tickets of low values ($0.05, $0.10 or $0.25) abandoned by clients of the Casino de Montréal.
