The Red Cross is delighted to present its 19th Annual Fundraising Event on Wednesday, September 13th, 2023, at the Grand Quay of the Port of Montreal, with the theme “A Gift of Humanity”. The event will be co-chaired by Mr. Olivier Lemire, President, Keurig Dr Pepper Canada, Mrs. Karine Abgrall-Teslyk, Executive Vice President, Head of Personal Banking, Laurentian Bank, Mr. Martin Imbleau, President and Chief Executive Officer, Montreal Port Authority, and Mr. Paul C. Genest, Senior Vice-President, Power Corporation of Canada.
The Canadian Red Cross helps people and communities across Canada and around the world, contributing to their resilience-building efforts. The donations raised during the annual fundraising event will be used to train volunteers and to support the provision of essential services to people affected by a disaster: comfort, lodging, hot meals, new weather-appropriate clothing, personal hygiene items and products for children. This gift of humanity is made possible thanks to the generosity of volunteers and donors like you.
This humanitarian event, which has become a mainstay of the fundraising scene, raises an average of over a million dollars a year to support the Red Cross’ mission to help those who need it, when they need it most. The gala continues a longstanding tradition of fundraising events organized by the various National Societies of the Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement around the world.
