Cedars takes a stand for cancer patients

Through your support, the Foundation helps ensure there can be a life with cancer, and a future without it.

Because one in two Canadians will be diagnosed with cancer.

Because every year, 20,000 of them and their families will walk through the doors of the McGill University Health Centre (MUHC), seeking advanced treatment, understanding care and unwavering support.

Because the MUHC's cutting-edge research centre has the potential to drive change for cancer patients all around the world.

Cedars Cancer Foundation takes a stand for cancer patients.

Together we stand for cancer patients

2022 Spreading Warmth for the Cause

We did it! The scarf sale is over and together, we were able to raise $1450.00 to help Cedars CanSupport in its mission of offering support and comfort to cancer patients, survivors and care givers. From the bottom of my heart, I want to thank everyone who contributed, either by purchasing scarves or buying and donating them back to cancer patients. Your support will go a long way in helping alleviate the experience of living with cancer for many people. Thank you 🙂!

2022 Tite Frette Campaign Généreuse

My name is Vanessa, and I am a breast cancer survivor. I was diagnosed in January 2017 at the age of 29. As unlucky as I was, I was extremely lucky and grateful to be treated and cared for by Dr. Flieszer, Dr. Bouganim and their teams at the Cedars Cancer Centre at the MUHC. My husband and I had the opportunity to use our passion to raise money through our new store, Tite Frette Brossard, by selling a Mimosa beer brewed for our "Campaign Généreuse" where we accumulated 1$ for each can sold to donate to a foundation of our choice. We also held an event in our store with the Fédération des clubs d'affaires du Quebec where we raised another 250$ to add to our donation. We are honoured to choose to have the total proceeds of 600$ donated to the Cedar's Cancer foundation. These funds will support both Dr. Fleiszer's Clinical Education Fund and Dr. Bouganim's Medical Oncology Research & Care fund. Thank you for being you and for your excellent care! We hope this helps you continue to provide care for others as you did so wondrously for me.

Hosted by CJAD 800 AM Morning Man Andrew Carter, the event was a resounding success raising in excess of $450,000 and counting. This year’s event included a moving tribute to the late Joe Cheaib, Vice Chair of the Foundation, and past co-chair of the Raffle & Auction Soirée. Joe had a generosity of spirit and warmth that was so inspirational to all. He will be forever in our hearts.

Annual Appeal 2020

It’s been a year unlike most. This was a year filled with hope, and filled with heartache. We postponed our primary fundraisers due to the pandemic, and have increased our humanitarian aid both locally and abroad. Our heartache included the loss of cherished loved ones and community leaders. It included tens of thousands of Quebecers and millions worldwide being affected by this virus. But throughout, and forever forward, we will maintain a singular focus - since cancer has not and will not take a pause.
