Montr\u00e9al, September 27, 2022 \u2013<\/strong> The huge solidarity movement in support of the hospitals that swept across Qu\u00e9bec culminated on September 24 as the Generations Challenge came to a close. Together, the hundreds of participants who pushed their limits for their hospitals raised<\/strong> an impressive $1 150 000.<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n

The proceeds raised through a wide variety of creative, original and sports initiatives will be allocated to help our hospitals meet their real and urgent needs, such as reorganizing a care unit or purchasing medical equipment. <\/p>\n\n

\u201cWhat\u2019s so inspiring about the Generations Challenge is that whether it\u2019s friends, colleagues or family coming together, it\u2019s possible to set a goal and respond to the tangible needs of all the participating hospital foundations. Quebecers can be very proud of what they\u2019ve achieved,\u201d said Jos\u00e9e Lavigueur, the Challenge\u2019s spokesperson. <\/p>\n\n

To highlight the event and the participants’ efforts, a souvenir video<\/strong><\/a> was produced.<\/p>\n\n

The largest edition eve<\/strong><\/p>\n\n

This year, no fewer than 17 foundations took part in this unique collective initiative in Qu\u00e9bec. This record participation is a testament to the relevance of an event like this and the importance of persevering and developing this initiative. <\/p>\n\n

That\u2019s why all of Qu\u00e9bec\u2019s hospital foundations are invited to join in the next edition! <\/p>\n\n

The organizers of the Challenge would also like to acknowledge that this adventure would not have been possible without the precious support of its valued partners: National Bank, Couche-Tard and Quebecor. <\/p>\n\n
