Saint John, New Brunswick (Tuesday, September 28, 2021) – Moltex Energy and ARC Clean Energy Canada (ARC Canada) are delighted to sponsor and participate in the Joint Economic Development Initiative (JEDI) golf tournament today at West Hills Golf Club.
JEDI is a non-profit organization dedicated to supporting Indigenous participation in the New Brunswick economy. It offers a variety of programs and tools to foster workforce and economic development, and works closely with its partners from Indigenous communities, government and the private sector.
The golf tournament raises money for the JEDI Community Fund, a program that supports community-focused initiatives across the province. In previous years, the fund has supported the Wolastoqiyik Treaty Day, community Pow Wows, and the Natoaganeg Community Food Centre.
As sponsors of the event, Moltex Energy and ARC Canada have a booth and prize wheel set up, where participants can learn more about the New Brunswick small modular reactor (SMR) opportunity in a fun and interactive way.
