CIM FOUNDATION Thanks to the contribution of generous donors in 2019, the CIM Foundation was able to continue to support scholarships and the CIM Distinguished Lecturers program. The Foundation also contributed to organizations such as MineralsEd BC and the Club de Mineralogie de Montreal. These groups provide students and members of the general public across Canada with valuable educational programs and events to help them better understand how the mining industry supports them in their daily lives. Throughout the year, the Foundation provides educational material to CIM Branches and Societies for their regional events. Students and their teachers receive collectible mineral cards to help them continue their learning well after the events and to assist them in their school projects. In addition, the Foundation supported remote communities through the Nunavik Mineral Exploration Fund by creating 14 mining and geology educational backpacks.
