Each year, Opération Enfant Soleil honours the courage of one child from each of Quebec’s administrative regions. Follow each child’s journey through the fact sheets and videos that tell their story.
Has your child benefited from equipment funded by Opération Enfant Soleil during their stay at a major pediatric center in Quebec or at a hospital in your region? We would love to hear their story! Please send us your testimonial along with a few photos via email at temoignage@operationenfantsoleil.ca. To apply for your child as an Enfant Soleil ambassador, fill out our online form.
