Two generous donors add $100,000 to the amount raised during the Chemise blanche for the benefit of the Fonds de la Santé de l'Homme

Events

A cocktail on the roof terrace accompanied by a performance by Vincent Vallières, a delicious gourmet dinner and an auction at the auction hosted by Marc-André Coallier are the key elements of this evening... not to mention the announcement of a $100,000 bonus to the evening's profits by two donors! The Laroche Group and the Immo Villeä Group doubled the amount raised during the evening, by donating $50,000 each to the CHUS Foundation. This bonus, to the great surprise of all the participants present, brought the amount of $100,000 raised during the evening to a total of $200,000.

“The Fonds de la Santé des hommes is very important for us, support Mr. Michel Laroche and Mr. Éric Laroche, President and Vice President of the Laroche Group. We have contributed to this Fund from the beginning and we are happy to increase the profits of the Chemise blanche and to donate even more for research into diseases that primarily or exclusively affect men.”
Mr. Richard Verreault of the Immo Villeä Group agrees. “The Fonds de la Santé des hommes will support research in this field as well as prevention. Our $50,000 donation this year confirms our support for the cause.”

Recall that the first edition of the Chemise Blanche benefit event, held in 2019, raised a total of $186,746.
