RIGHT TO PLAY

IAMGOLD is a proud sponsor and supporter of Right To Play.

Right To Play is the leading international and humanitarian development organization using the transformative power of sport and play to build essential skills in children and thereby drive social change in some of the most disadvantaged areas of the world. Right To Play delivers programs in 20 countries affected by war, poverty and disease in Africa, Asia, the Middle East, and South America. Their programs incorporate a unique methodology that uses sport and play as tools for learning in four development impact areas: Basic Education and Child Development, Health Promotion and Disease Prevention, Conflict Resolution and Peace Building, Community Development and Participation. As a result, more than 700,000 children take part in regular sport and play activities and a combined total of more than
1 million children attend regular programming and special sports events and festivals.

IAMGOLD supports their unique programs which harness the power of sport and play for development, health and peace. While our partnership plays an integral role in inspiring community leaders and youth around the world, it also acts as a platform to create leaders among our own employees in Canada.

Through Right To Play’s All-Star initiative, IAMGOLD employees take a lead role in promoting our partnership to employees and to the public, creating awareness and taking a lead role as ambassadors of Right To Play. IAMGOLD employees lead, inspire, and empower others within the organization while spreading Right To Play’s values throughout the community. Through our ongoing commitment with Right To Play, IAMGOLD supports its vision of creating a healthier and safer world through the power of sport and play while providing the necessary skills to transform each community – and while creating leaders here at home as well.
