À chaque mois, nous abordons un thème différent avec un mot de la direction ainsi que de courtes vignettes portant sur les fonds, les philanthropes et les organismes qui forment la communauté de la FGM en se mettant à l’écoute et au service de la communauté du Grand Montréal.
Formerly with National Bank Financial, where he held the position of Senior Vice President and Portfolio Manager, Richard Lupien is a convinced and committed philanthropist. For over 15 years, he has been involved as a volunteer with many causes and organizations, making numerous donations, as well as soliciting donations from those in his network. He has served on the boards of several organizations, and sits on the Governing Council of HEC Montréal. In 2015, he was awarded the prize for the advisor “most engaged in his community” by Finance et Investissement.
Upon his retirement, Mr. Lupien decided to create a lasting framework for his philanthropy by setting up the Fonds Fondation Famille Lupien at FGM, and involving his children, Charles, Alexandre, Louis and Julie. Externally managed by National Bank Financial, the Fund supports three sectors that have long been close to Mr. Lupien’s heart: culture, mainly music; education, primarily post-secondary; and mental health. The family foundation’s logo, created by Louis, aptly reflects the fund’s various dimensions: four pillars represent his four children, and three rods represent the three supported sectors.
Since its creation in 2019, the Fonds Fondation Famille Lupien at FGM has supported many Greater Montreal organizations. This year, Mr. Lupien, who is himself a pianist, was especially keen to support the Concours musical international de Montréal, the Canadian Music Competition and the Orchestre de la Francophonie in order to help them pursue their vital missions.
