Fundraising activities

At my age, many people wonder why I’ve decided to step back into the boxing ring.

Because in life—no matter your age—challenges never go away…

But our ability to face them depends on our determination.

On April 25th, I will step into the ring at the *Beyond The Ring* event in Cantley.

Not to prove that I am a boxer.

But to prove that with discipline, perseverance, and a clear goal, you can always push your limits.

In business, just as in life, obstacles are everywhere.

But every obstacle is also an opportunity to grow, learn, and push beyond one’s limits.

All proceeds will go toward supporting children and families who are fighting every day for their quality of life.

I also have the immense privilege of having Ju Leblanc—a fellow local from Gatineau—in my corner; he will be making his debut in the world’s largest martial arts organization: the UFC.

An exceptional athlete, entrepreneur, and human being.

Thank you for joining me in this challenge.

If you want to support the cause, experience an incredible evening, and back up the next generation of fighters...

Come make some noise for the cause.

We are proud to invite you to our charity pickleball tournament benefiting 24h Tremblant and Team Billie & Lily – Les Fonceuses.

More than just a sporting event, this evening is an opportunity to come together, build meaningful connections, and make a tangible contribution to an important cause.

A significant portion of the registration fee will go directly to 24h Tremblant to support research and organizations that help children with cancer and their families.

During the event, we will also officially announce the total amount raised for 24h Tremblant—a moment for us to see the real-world impact of our collective effort.
