SEPT-ÎLES, September 20, 2023 – ArcelorMittal Mines and Infrastructure Canada (“ArcelorMittal”) is pleased to support the relocation project of the Centre d’action bénévole (CAB) le Virage de Sept-Îles with a donation of $75,000 over three years.

In addition to providing CAB le Virage with premises that are more suitable for its mission, the relocation of its facilities will also expand the organization’s kitchen and provide a day centre for seniors.

“We’re delighted to support the Centre d’action bénévole le Virage in its expansion and contribute to its mission. It’s vital to ensure that its volunteers can continue to work with the local population that uses its services and whose needs are growing,” said Mapi Mobwano, President and CEO of ArcelorMittal.

“I’m always moved to see how the business community responds to our calls and supports us. Every day, I tell myself that we’re doing our work at CAB for the right reasons, and that it’s making a difference for so many people in need. Our projects would not be possible without the generous assistance of companies like ArcelorMittal,” stated Karoline Gilbert, Executive Director of CAB le Virage.
