Flexpipe is proud to announce the success of its charity market in support of the CAB Farnham. The event raised $3,140<\/strong> to support many essential programs and services offered to the community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Encouraging regional circular economy<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Every year, Flexpipe organizes a family BBQ for its employees and their immediate families. Why not take the opportunity to support a local organization that supports community self-help through a charity market.<\/strong> Donations of household goods, mostly provided by company employees and a few community members, helped fuel the sale of second-hand items and foster the region’s circular economy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The voluntary sale ran from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., and many visitors took advantage of the family activities on offer: inflatable games for young and old, BBQ, cotton candy and second-hand shopping. The Centre de r\u00e9ussite \u00e9ducative pour enfants La-le-li<\/a> graciously provided colorful face painting, creating a festive and convivial atmosphere.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Support local community<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The mission of the Centre d’Action B\u00e9n\u00e9vole<\/a> of Farnham is to promote volunteerism and meet the needs of citizens through a variety of programs. The funds raised through this charity market will enable us to continue offering valuable support to seniors, individuals with disabilities, families in difficulty and all vulnerable people<\/strong>. The Farnham CAB serves over 200 families<\/strong> in a territory that includes Farnham, Sainte-Brigide-d’Iberville, Sainte-Sabine and Ange-Gardien.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jean Valiquette, General Manager of the Farnham CAB, emphasized the importance of this initiative:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“The current socio-economic context is rather difficult and affects the entire population, including people in vulnerable situations and those on low incomes. The rising costs of food and basic necessities continue to rise, while disposable income is not keeping pace. For the CAB, this represents a 30% increase in demand, but a 40% decrease in what we’re able to fetch.<\/strong>“<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Flexpipe would like to extend its warmest thanks to all the employees and citizens who contributed to the success of this event through their donations and active participation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
