It is with great pleasure that we announce the results of our sixth edition of the fifty-fifty raffle. The winner is Mr. Ronald Leathead, from Vaudreuil, whose ticket number is 1953.
We thank Mr. Leathead for his gesture which allows the Maison La Traversée to continue its commitment to the community.
Mr. Leathead “invested” $20 for 4 tickets and received a return of $1,258! The total winnings of the December 5th draw were $2,516!
Thank you all for your support for the Maison La Traversée!
We are extremely pleased to present the preliminary results of our Christmas Market and the sale of our poinsettias and Christmas trees for a total amount of $65,202.
The Maison La Traversée is filled with warmth and light, thanks to each and every one of you. Without your support and encouragement, it would be difficult, if not impossible, to achieve such good results.
We would like to thank all the people who attended the event, whether they bought on site or online, and our precious sponsors, especially FLO Canada, to whom we owe all the magnificent poinsettias and trees for sale. Without your help, this event would never have been possible 3 years ago.
We would like to thank the wonderful team that is involved with our House. Your empathy, compassion and generosity allow us to be present in our community and make a difference for our residents. Each of you contributes your talents so that the Foundation’s mission can continue to be fulfilled for each person who walks through our doors.
A million thanks to all of you, beautiful community, you are the reason for this success!

It is with great pride that the Fondation La Traversée announces that we are involved with the 24h Tremblant charity event.
Several volunteers have mobilized to form a team that will do ski touring for 24 hours, from Saturday, December 10th at noon to Sunday, December 11th at noon.
The 24h Tremblant is a sports challenge in teams of 6 to 12 participants who take turns for 24 hours in one of the five proposed events: ski touring, alpine skiing, walking, running or hybrid mode (walking and running).
The registered teams participate in a fundraising event where all profits are donated to three major foundations dedicated to the cause of children: the Charles-Bruneau Foundation, the CHEO Foundation and the Tremblant Foundation.
This year, the organizers have announced several new features, including alpine touring as a new discipline and the possibility of four skiers per team at a time on the trail.
More than a sporting challenge, the 24h Tremblant provides an unparalleled experience to participants and visitors thanks to the many activities where generosity, emotions, fun and surpassing oneself are combined.
Last year, the 24h Tremblant surpassed its initial fundraising objectives with $4,011,126 raised to advance the cause of children through three major foundations, and the Fondation La Traversée wants to help reach new heights!
We are participating in this event to raise awareness of “La Traversée” and to participate in the community fundraising effort.
We need your financial participation to help us raise $1,800 to make children’s hearts shine!
Many thanks to all of you!
We are very pleased to announce that we raised $7,677.34 during the Tim Hortons Smile Cookie 2022 campaign!
We are delighted to have participated in this campaign and it has proven that the simple purchase of a cookie can make a big difference. The money raised will help finance the Maison La Traversée in order to offer free quality care in a warm and reassuring environment.
A big thank you to the population for supporting us and for buying cookies at the two Tim Hortons in Mont-Tremblant. We are especially blessed that our community supports the Fondation so warmly.
We would also like to thank all the volunteers who came to decorate cookies and the Tim Hortons employees for helping us with this campaign. It brought much joy to our hearts and many smiles filled our days.
A huge thank you to Ann Brayley and Peter Arzenshek, owners of Tim Hortons restaurants in Mont-Tremblant, for choosing the Fondation La Traversée to benefit from the funds raised and for their incredible support!
We are delighted to announce that a painting exhibition by the painter Alain Bernard will take place on Saturday, September 24th, 2022 from 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. outside the Fondation La Traversée.
Whether it’s beautiful landscapes, characters or strikingly realistic urban scenes, you will find the perfect painting to enhance your decor.
The sale of each painting will bring in 50% of its cost to the Fondation. You will then be able to obtain an official receipt for the amount that will be donated to La Traversée.
Your donations are essential to finance the Fondation because they allow us to offer free quality care in a warm and reassuring environment.
Born in the Beauce region of Quebec, Alain has lived in several parts of the province, from the Magdalen Islands to James Bay, including Lac Saint-Jean and the Outaouais region. He is now established in the Laurentians at Mont-Tremblant.
His passion for wielding brushes and spatulas began in his teens. Having developed a taste for seeing the country, his works are generally inspired by his travels; whether it be from a local area of Quebec or elsewhere in the world. Alain likes to paint on site in front of his subject.
In an impressionist style, playing with light, he is particularly fond of urban and evening scenes that he likes to describe as everyday life.
A heartfelt thank you to Alain Bernard for agreeing to donate the profits of the sales to the Fondation. We look forward to seeing you in large numbers to come and support us and buy beautiful paintings.

A big thank you to all of you for coming in great numbers to buy delicious treats from Chef Tyson while contributing to the funding of the Fondation La Traversée.
The funds raised will be used to continue to offer care, comfort and well-being to our residents in order for them to live their last days surrounded by their loved ones and families.
A heartfelt thank you to our volunteers, you make a difference to an organization like ours. Your help and support is very precious to us.
