Desgagnés wishes to mark the National Day of Truth and Reconciliation by implementing the Desgagnés Recognition Program. The objective of this program is to recognize the interest and motivation of young students in grade 7 who are enrolled full time in a recognized institution in Nunavik and Nunavut. By demonstrating interest and motivation through their presence at school, students will be able to register for prizes in the form of computer equipment.
Desgagnés has implemented the program in Nunavik and Nunavut and hope to expand the program in each region served by Desgagnés in the coming months.
