As hope grows, our children grow.

From Gatineau to Baie-Comeau, families from all over Quebec put their lives on hold to get treated at Sainte-Justine, whose unique expertise is fueled by the generosity of the greater community. In March 2023, Quebec’s regions are mobilizing to support the hospital that cares for all children in the province.

It was a beautiful, sunny summer’s day. Perfect for being out on the water. Until Anne-Marie’s canoe came into contact with an electrical wire while passing under a bridge.

It was March 11, 2021. We didn’t know it yet, but that day would mark a turning point in your life.

Without the expertise of Sainte-Justine’s medical team, Esteban may not have survived the terrible scooter accident that sent him to the hospital with multiple traumas in October 2021.

The CHU Sainte-Justine Foundation receives biggest-ever donation to a Quebec hospital. Dedicated to pediatric research, this historic $40-million donation from Diane Blais and Michel Lanteigne will have a major and immediate impact to accelerate the pace of scientific discoveries.

Diane Blais and Michel Lanteigne are giving themselves the best gift of all: the satisfaction of knowing that they are changing lives for the better. Read on to find out what prompted them to make a historic $40-million donation to fund research at Sainte-Justine.

I’ve seen first-hand the furrowed brows of worried parents, the wide-eyed innocence of young children and the sleeves-rolled-up determination of healthcare professionals, all at Sainte-Justine. On a personal level, this is where I brought not one, but two lives into the world last year. I could not be more grateful.

Spark hope at Sainte-Justine. Help us make the Tree of Lights shine brighter than ever.
