CRÉDIT MUTUEL ARKÉA AND PAPREC DONATE €30,000 TO THE SNSM !

Throughout the Vendée Globe 2020, a charity operation for SNSM sea rescue teams was organised by Crédit Mutuel Arkéa and the Paprec group.

The operation raised €30,000!

A cheque was presented to the association in Port-la-Forêt, France. Sébastien Simon, skipper of Team ARKEA PAPREC, who embodied the partnership throughout the race, Cédric Malengreau, Director of the General Secretariat of Institutional Communication for Crédit Mutuel Arkéa, Stéphane Névé, Director of Coved Environnement 56, Paprec group agency, and Frédéric Damlaincourt, SNSM representative for the Finistère department, were all present.

For information, the SNSM carries out an average 9,000 interventions every year, assisting no fewer than 37,000 people in difficulty along the coastline and at sea. The association is well-known for its public service vocation and relies almost exclusively on the generosity of the general public.
