Lowe’s Canada has partnered with the Charles-Bruneau Foundation to support pediatric cancer research in Quebec. Through the participation of more than 15 of its suppliers and the fundraising campaign led by its cycling team, the organization presented a $400,000 cheque to the foundation as part of the 25th Tour CIBC Charles-Bruneau.
The 57 cyclists of the Lowe’s Canada team took part in various treks of the tour this past week, including the 50 km, the 80 km, the 141 km, and the remote tour.
“If the last 18 months have taught us anything, it’s how important it is to have access to high-quality healthcare,” Jean-Sébastien Lamoureux, senior VP, public affairs, asset protection, and sustainable development, said in a release. “In this context, we are particularly pleased to once again be a Diamond Partner of the Tour CIBC Charles-Bruneau and to financially support cutting-edge pediatric hemato-oncology research”.
