The Ultra COVID-19 Fund donated $1,000 to support Moisson Montreal with their activities in the local community during the pandemic.
Moisson Montreal is located in the community where Ultra is located in Montreal serving 257 local community organizations on a regular basis. Ultra’s employees organise a foodbank drive every year to support the charity as well as having teams volunteer to help the community by assembling food baskets. This has been even more important during the COVID-19 pandemic as so many individuals and families have seen their resources reduced significantly.
