25th edition of Les Toqués du vin for the benefit of Opération Enfant Soleil: Record amount of $200,000 raised for the well-being of Quebec children

On October 26, 2023, more than 300 generous donors gathered around the cause of the well-being of sick children as part of the 25th edition of Les Toqués du vin co-presented by TELUS and Familiprix, in association with the Caisse Desjardins de Sainte-Foy and hosted by Alain Dumas, spokesperson for the cause. Thanks to the participants’ generosity, combined with our partners’ invaluable collaboration, this last edition helped to raise a record sum of $200,000 which will contribute to hundreds of projects in major pediatric centres, regional hospitals and various organizations across the province that will have an impact on the health of children from all over Quebec.
