2023 BDO Cedars CanSupport Dragon Boat Race

The BDO CanSupport Dragon Boat Race will take place on Saturday, September 9, 2023 at the Promenade Pere-Marquette in Lachine (2105 Blvd St. Joseph, Lachine, QC, H8S 2N6). Not only is this Cedars signature event a highlight of our calendar, but it is also the primary fundraiser for Cedars CanSupport.

This event is crucial to help raise awareness and much needed funds for Cedars CanSupport, which has, and continues to provide, free psychological, emotional, practical and financial support to cancer patients and their families, one person at a time, for the past 30 years.

A big thank you to BDO, whose generosity and dedication to our cause warms our hearts and fills us with the utmost gratitude. We encourage you to fundraise and support cancer patients and their families who face challenges every day and appreciate your help during their cancer treatment journey. All funds raised support the Cedars CanSupport program which offers complimentary programs and services to improve the quality of life for cancer patients and their families.
