The CJE Escouade contributes to the Christmas Campaign of the Christian Vachon Foundation

The CJE Squad of the Carrefour Jeunesse-Emploi Memphrémagog sponsored 7 children as part of the Christian Vachon Foundation's Christmas Campaign.

Touched by the mission of the Christian Vachon Foundation, the members of the Escouade CJE have entirely set up a fundraising campaign to allow them to contribute to this cause. On November 24, 107 people came to watch a Christmas classic for the modest sum of $1. It is thanks to the generosity of the population that we raised $280 allowing us to sponsor 7 children of the Christmas Campaign: A CHRISTMAS BALL FOR THE HAPPINESS OF A CHILD. The members of the Escouade CJE are proud to take part in the mission of the Christian Vachon Foundation and make a difference in the Christmas of many children.

The Christian Vachon Foundation helps families who need it, among other things, because of their precarious financial situation. As the holiday season approaches, the Foundation is taking a special action and is looking for godmothers and godfathers who will anonymously offer a Christmas gift to the children of families supported by the Foundation. A different way to help these families and their children.

The CJE Squad has been active since September and the past three months have been busy with several involvements with organizations in the MRC of Memphremagog. This is a group of people between the ages of 18 and 29 who provide services to NPOs in the MRC. Usually, it is the organizations that use their services. This time, the CJE Squad organized an event to enhance an existing campaign.
