More than 1,700 people gathered at Parc Jean-Drapeau on September 30 for the RBC Race for the Kids, to show their love for the families of Sainte-Justine. Together, they raised over $715,000 so that the CHU Sainte-Justine can keep providing an unparalleled standard of pediatric health care for families across Quebec.
The ambassador of this year’s event, Samuel, was on hand to cheer on the runners. He himself proudly walked the 1 km course in his new orthopedic brace, alongside his dad Jonathan.
“What a joy it was to see Samuel proudly share his story with you and inspire you all to go the extra mile for children like him, whether at the Race or as part of the fundraising. Thank you for following his lead and taking part in the RBC Race for the Kids. Your support is a beacon of hope for families like ours.”
Our gratitude goes out to RBC for the incredible support they have lent to the CHU Sainte-Justine Foundation for over a decade now. Their engagement has been vital in ensuring that Sainte-Justine remains at the forefront of the best in mother and child health.
Together, one step at a time, we are getting closer to a brighter future for families coping with a child’s health issues. Thank you for being there to get us across the finish line!
