Mongolie expedition in support of the Charles-Bruneau Foundation

Today, I’m taking on a challenge that is very close to my heart.

On July 1, I will be embarking on a 16-day expedition in Mongolia — covering 150 km on foot and horseback, averaging about 8 hours of travel each day. It will be a physical challenge, of course, but above all, a human one.

Why am I doing this?

Because this cause touches me personally.

My daughter Annie, when she was only 13 months old, battled leukemia. Thanks to a bone marrow donation from her older brother Martin, who was just 5 years old at the time, she is still with us today. He quite literally saved her life.

This experience left a lasting impact on our family and today, I want to give back.

I have committed to raising funds for the Charles-Bruneau Foundation, which supports research and helps children with cancer, as well as their families, navigate some of the most difficult moments of their lives.

All the donations I raise will go directly to the Charles Bruneau Foundation, and I will cover the costs of this expedition myself.

Every donation, regardless of the amount, makes a real difference.

If you would like to support me once again in this expedition, you can make a donation here.

Thank you for your generosity and support.

Jean Houde
