TORONTO, Dec. 21,
2022 /CNW/ - Intact Financial
Corporation (TSX: IFC) is announcing the results of its Generosity
in Action campaign raising over $4.5
million. Intact employees raised a record $2.3 million over two weeks, with funds directed
to a registered charity of their choice or to their local United
Way. For every dollar donated by an employee, Intact matched and
donated to United Way programs and agencies across Canada to support the most vulnerable in our
communities.
"Helping people drives everything we do at Intact, and it
starts with each of us. I am extremely proud of the generosity of
our employees to help others and make our communities more
resilient," said Louis Gagnon, Chief
Executive Officer, Canada, Intact
Financial Corporation.

struggling with day-to-day expenses, almost half are struggling to
meet rising food costs, and food banks are now facing the highest
