Dear Friends,
It was with great enthusiasm and gratitude that I joined Fondation Santé Urbaine a few weeks ago as the foundation’s new executive director. In my first encounters with the teams, volunteers, and philanthropists like you, I was pleased to meet passionate people and a united team, all dedicated to the health and well-being of our community.

As the holidays approach, I wanted to highlight the ties that bind us together as members of the foundation’s big gardes du coeur family. In our hospitals, clinics, and health-care centres, every action and contribution makes a difference. Whether you are a part of our health-care team, a volunteer, or a donor, you too are a garde du coeur. Because you are looking after the health of our community and contributing to a brighter future.

This year, I am once again asking you to commit to standing by our side. Together, we can continue to offer excellent, compassionate, and people-centred care. Your generosity allows us to transform lives, support families, and build a health-care system where no one is left on the sidelines.

From the bottom of my heart, thank you for your generosity and trust. It is during this season of celebration and sharing that our actions, no matter how small, bring a bit of comfort and hope to those who need it most.

Wishing you all happy holidays, filled with health, happiness, and solidarity.
