Why
contribute?

Children with disabilities are like butterflies with a broken wing. They are just as beautiful as all others, but they need help to spread their wings.

The 24-Hour Challenge

The second annual 24-Hour Challenge fundraiser for the Quebec Society for Disabled Children will begin at 6 p.m. Friday June 3, 2011 and will wind up 24 hours later, at 6 p.m. Saturday June 4, 2011.

The funds raised will allow several disabled children to attend the Papillon Camp and experience a real vacation in the great outdoors, with care and activities entirely adapted to their needs. During this event, generous donors will be able to discover the unique experience of flying at SkyVenture® Montreal.

This year, the format is even better. Everyone can participate according to his or her level and within the following schedule:

For Beginners: Friday June 3rd from 6 p.m. to 11 p.m. and Saturday June 4th from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m.

In exchange for a donation to the Québec Society for Disabled Children, participants will be able to experience an Introductory Package of 2 or 4 flights per person, including a souvenir DVD.
Companies may, by making a donation, obtain a bundle of Introductory Packages for groups of 12 participants. These packages can be distributed individually to employees or clients or, better still, companies can do a two-in-one by giving the packages purchased to underprivileged children via SkyVenture® Montreal.

For Repeat flyers and skydivers: Friday June 3rd from 11 p.m. to Saturday June 4th at 9 a.m.

Repeat flyers and skydivers can purchase 10-minute blocks per person. The night is yours!

Alain Guérin, CEO of SkyVenture® Montréal, a long-time benefactor of the Quebec Society for Disabled Children explains that a tradition was born last year when SkyVenture® Montréal held its first fundraiser May 28-29, 2010. SkyVenture® Montréal has since resolved to contribute every Spring to this great cause.
