Use the power of the flower to END MS
Some results...
May was a lively month!
On the Mother’s Day weekend, everyone was invited to use the power of the flower by contributing to the MS Carnation Campaign throughout Quebec. In this provincial campaign, $500,000 has been raised at the time of writing (preliminary results).
In Montreal...
May’s festivities closed with the Evening in Red, an unforgettable experience, all the profits of which were donated to the MS Society. Thanks to the MS Carnation Campaign in the greater Montreal area, the Celebrity Booth and the Evening in Red, more than $65,000 was raised.
Hundreds of volunteers and some fifteen celebrities, including Sophie Thibault, anchorperson at TVA Nouvellesand spokesperson for MS Awareness Month, lent a helping hand in selling carnations to the public.
During the Mother’s Day weekend, the Multiple Sclerosis Society of Canada launched the 34rd edition of the MS Carnation Campaign. This event is associated with MS Awareness Month, for which Sophie Thibault, anchorperson at TVA Nouvelles, has agreed to be spokesperson for the sixth year.
