Saputo raises $640K for United Way

Who: Saputo

What: The company has raised $640,000 for United Way branches across Canada.

The funds were raised during a three-week annual campaign that united employees for a good cause, and featured creative workplace activities ranging from sketch contests to cannoli bake sales. Saputo matched every dollar donated.

Saputo has supported United Way for over two decades. The organization aims to address local needs and alleviate the burden of inflation and food insecurity.

“Saputo and United Way have always shared common values and agree on how to have an impact on society through community involvement,” said Haig Poutchigian, president and COO of Saputo’s Canadian division, in a release. “With so much going on in the world that affects us in a profound way, it’s easy to overlook the needs of others. Now, more than ever, is the time to help those in need.”
