Our mission

We work with the Greater Montreal population and with communities, businesses, institutions and philanthropic organizations.

We raise money and invest it locally in a network of inclusive and community-driven agencies.

Our actions leave a lasting impact on the living conditions of the most vulnerable members of society.
