Diversified mining company Rio Tinto is investing $10-million in a variety of grassroots projects across Canada and the US to support local community efforts to fight Covid-19.
The group’s investment is targeted at practical solutions like funding the food banks or counselling and support services that are helping frontline response workers and the communities around our operations, says CEO Jean-Sebastien Jacques.
“We will also play our part in supporting and stimulating current and future economic activity through regional development initiatives that are vital for local jobs and businesses.”
