Philippe Johnson rallied his Legal Services colleagues to successfully participate in the TriaDon, held on March 24 to support the Maison Michel-Sarrazin, a palliative and end-of-life care centre in Quebec City.
The team, which also included our colleagues Louis-Charles Boudreault, Alexandre Girard-Létourneau and Valérie Pelletier, as well as a former iAAH employee, Lorie Belle-Isle, expressed their heartfelt gratitude for those who cheered them on.
Thanks to your generosity, we almost tripled our initial goal of $1,500 (296% of our target), which is why we’d like to share our 4,445 thank yous with all those who contributed! We’re so grateful for you!
Overall, the event raised over $73,384 for the Michel-Sarrazin Foundation!
So, once again, on behalf of the iA Donations team: THANK YOU!
Kudos to everyone and thanks for so brilliantly showing us how much the word “jurist” rhymes with “altruist”!
