On May 9th, around 150 people from the business community took part in an exclusive evening hosted by renowned journalist Jocelyne Cazin at the Port of Montreal Tower, in the company of the Internationally acclaimed violinist Alexandre Da Costa and his musicians. Organized as part of a major campaign, this benefit cocktail was a tremendous success, raising a net amount of $750,000.
The funds raised during this exceptional evening will be entirely devoted to the purchase of new beds to replace obsolete beds. This generous contribution will allow Marie-Clarac Hospital to maintain the excellence of its services offered in rehabilitation and palliative care.
The success of this event was made possible thanks to the invaluable support of generous donors and partners. The Marie-Clarac Hospital Foundation is deeply grateful to the organizing committee for its hard work under the presidency of Me Richard Laramée, Chairman of the Board of Directors and Managing Partner for the Montreal office of DS Avocats, Me Nicola Di Iorio, Partner, Lawyer at DS Avocats, Mr. Patrice Bourbonnais, President and Chief Operating Officer of the Petra Group, Mr. Michael Fratianni, President and Chief Executive Officer of Société Terminaux Montréal Gateway, Ms. Nancy Forlini, President and Real Estate Broker of ReMax Solutions, Mr. Salvatore Migliara, President of Residence Au Fil de l’Eau, Ms. Francyne Noël Trudeau, Vice-President of Gestion Cholab inc., and Mr. Raymond Paquin, Founder of the Marie-Clarac Hospital Foundation.
