We owe a round of thanks and gratitude for the outpouring of support at the 2020 Cedars Virtual Auction and Raffle which took place LIVE on Tuesday, December 15.

This year’s event included a moving tribute to the late Joe Cheaib, Vice Chair of the Foundation, and past co-chair of the Raffle & Auction Soirée. Joe had a generosity of spirit and warmth that was so inspirational to all. He will be forever in our hearts.

Annual Appeal 2020

It’s been a year unlike most. This was a year filled with hope, and filled with heartache. We postponed our primary fundraisers due to the pandemic, and have increased our humanitarian aid both locally and abroad. Our heartache included the loss of cherished loved ones and community leaders. It included tens of thousands of Quebecers and millions worldwide being affected by this virus. But throughout, and forever forward, we will maintain a singular focus - since cancer has not and will not take a pause.

Together we stand for cancer patients

We recently announced the launch of the Cedars Covid-19 Humanitarian Fund for Pediatric and Adult Cancer Patients and their families, aligned with the Wilfrid Howick Humanitarian Fund and administered through Cedars CanSupport throughout the MUHC. If you missed that message, through this fund, the Cedars Cancer Foundation at the McGill University Health Center (MUHC) will continue to provide assistance and resources for cancer patients, and their families, in financial need, in an effort to alleviate the negative impact of financial hardship, reducing the stress associated with life’s basic necessities such as shelter, groceries, utilities, and transportation costs. The fund allows Cedars to help those most in need. Donors to this fund offer a tangible outreach to our patients when they are at their most vulnerable. Thank you for supporting this important patient community.
