OPERATION "BACK TO SCHOOL"

 

A LOOK BACK AT THE 14th EDITION

Business community responds in great numbers to help keep young people in school.

 

Over the past 14 years, over 2,500 businessmen and businesswomen have gone “back to school” to share their experience and passion with over 100,000 Secondary III, IV, and V students in order to encourage them to continue their studies.

 

Once again this year, young people had the privilege of listening to the testimonials of speakers from a variety of different backgrounds, including Gerry Frappier, President and General Manager of Le Réseau des sports; Marie-Josée Lamothe, Vice-President and General Manager of L’Oréal Canada; Jean-Pierre Beaudet, Regional Director at The Great-West Life Assurance Company; and David P. Leonard, President and Founder of the Trebas Institute.
