Double Your Impact
All donations received from September 18 through September 20 will be matched by RBC, up to a total of $25,000. Take advantage of this limited-time opportunity to amplify your support for Sainte-Justine families!
And all participants whose team receives at least one donation during this period will be entered into a draw for a chance to win two airline tickets from Air Canada*.

*Two economy class tickets for any destination regularly served by Air Canada in North America (including Hawaii, Mexico and the Caribbean). A member of the CHU Sainte-Justine Foundation team will contact the winning team with more information.
