As hope grows, our children grow.

I close my eyes and see the face of every baby, child and teenager that I met. I see the faces of their parents, their friends and their brothers and sisters. I see the Foundation team, and the very generous team from Clément.

Questions, so many questions: Why us? Why me? My eyes fill with tears when I think about my daughter’s eyes, the most beautiful in the world. What if they should close?

Everyone’s eyes were brimming over with tears. Mine and theirs. We were overwhelmed with emotion. I felt like an intruder during this powerful moment that felt utterly unreal. “Thank you.” On September 20, 2017, I watched as a life was saved by other people’s generosity.

What anomalies are involved? How can we target them while improving children’s quality of life after healing, without long-term side effects and complications?

All I want to do is reach out to you and tell you it’s okay to be sick and tired of it all. I want you to know you are allowed to cry and lose your temper.

Close to 200 people gathered at the CHU Sainte-Justine on June 13, 2018 to take part in Leucan’s 40th anniversary celebrations. It was a very special event that also gave the CHU Sainte-Justine and the Foundation a chance to highlight almost as many years of steadfast partnership with the organization. Thank you, Leucan!  

Following the recent unveiling of the CHU Sainte-Justine Foundation’s new identity, the Young Leaders Circle is also getting a makeover: presenting the Sainte-Justine Circle! A discussion with committee co-chairs Catherine Sharp and Chloé Teasdale.

Because the CHU Sainte-Justine Foundation’s mission is also to introduce you to all the extraordinary people who, every day, embody the soul and strength of its university hospital centre.
