MARIE DENISE PELLETIER
Spokesperson for L’ŒUVRE LÉGER throughout the world
“As far back as I remember, helping each other has always been very important in my family. So when I was asked to become spokesperson for L’ŒUVRE LÉGER throughout the world, I accepted without any hesitation. Since then, I’ve had the privilege of traveling to Burkina Faso, Bolivia and Asia to see with my own eyes that every dollar helps transform people’s lives. I saw people organizing themselves and taking charge of their lives. On behalf of those hundreds of thousands of women, men and children, I thank you for your generosity.”
IMA
Spokesperson for street youths
“Living on the street is an everyday hell! Life has been so generous to me! It’s the least I can do to advocate for street youths and raise awareness about their condition. Meeting them made me understand that they rarely live on the street by choice. If we listen to what they have to say and give them appropriate tools, hope and love, street youths really can get off the street. It is thanks to you that it becomes possible.”
Diane De Courcy,
Chair of the Commission scolaire de Montréal
President of the Feed a Child Campaign
“Whatever their parents’ situation, all children should have access to equal opportunities. Feed a Child is a program that allows underprivileged children in Québec not only to have one healthy meal every day, but also to develop and believe that, just like any other child, they have a chance at a positive future.
Feed a Child helps make our society a more just society. I am proud to be part of it as Campaign President.”
