In the form of a day of seaplane flights departing from Lac Saint-Augustin, the event enables some twenty children to fly over beautiful Quebec City in autumnal colors, allowing them to forget, for a few moments, about their illness and treatments.
Mobilizing for a future without cancer
Many of us have been touched, in one way or another, by cancer. Whether it's because a family member, a loved one's child or a colleague's child is affected by this disease, we want to get involved in this cause and make a real difference.
That's why we've created an online donation platform specifically for our team, and over the coming months we'll be organizing a host of fundraising activities for our plant employees, all for the benefit of the Charles-Bruneau Foundation. These will help fund research and give all children with cancer the best possible chance of recovery.
To give meaning to our daughter's illness, and to make our story more positive than it has been in recent years, we want to offer our support to all sick children. That's why we're raising funds for the Charles-Bruneau Foundation, whose mission is to give all children with cancer the best possible chance of recovery by funding research and supporting the development of projects dedicated to pediatric hemato-oncology.
This cause is very close to our hearts, and we want to do it for all the little warriors battling the disease. So, as part of our Halloween party, we'll be giving away lots and lots of candy and soliciting donations for the cause.
For several years now, we've organized a small walk/run/swim challenge at the campground to encourage people to get moving as a family, and we take advantage of the opportunity to make donations to a cause close to our hearts. This year, in Safia's memory, the event will be held in support of the Charles-Bruneau Foundation.
Camping Plage McKenzie is committed to donating $1 for every kilometer walked, run or swum.
