The CWB Foundation is dedicated to shaping the future of the welding industry by attracting young talent to the trade and breaking down barriers for underrepresented groups. Their mission revolves around forging partnerships between industry, education, and government to create pathways for Canadians to build successful careers in welding.
NFI Group Inc.‘s substantial investment of $30,000 will play an important role in amplifying the impact of CWB Foundation’s initiatives. This funding will specifically support a pre-employment workshop, designed to provide individuals, potentially with a focus on women, an immersive experience in welding and related skilled trades. Additionally, it will contribute to hosting a Mind Over Metal™ youth camp, fostering hands-on learning experiences for young students aged 12-17 within Technical-Vocational High School welding lab facilities in Winnipeg, Manitoba.
As the CWB Foundation continues to forge ahead in its mission, this strategic partnership with NFI Group Inc serves as a testament to the shared commitment towards building a robust and skilled workforce for the future.
