In 1901, Desjardins Group founder Alphonse Desjardins developed the concept of school caisse. School caisse is the first step in young people's financial lives. Caisse du Bassin-de-Chambly is pleased to partner with local schools to offer the service to all young savers.
Each year, 517 students in 3 elementary schools have the opportunity to see their savings grow with the service.
The caisse is proud to have generated an interest in the program among students and rewarded them with a backpack.
Caisse Desjardins du Bassin-de-Chambly is actively involved in the Desjardins Youth Work Experience program. The Caisse once again sponsored the creation of 3 summer jobs in the area served by the Caisse.
Each year, the caisse awards scholarships to young people attending local schools.
Caisse Desjardins du Bassin-de-Chambly also contributes to Desjardins Foundation, which was created by Desjardins Group in 1970. The Foundation's mission consists of promoting the pursuit of post-secondary studies by awarding scholarships by region.
