SAINT-EUSTACHE (QUÉBEC), May 27,2019 – HGrégoire is just a week away from closing its Facebook “One Comment, One Donation” campaign, aimed at raising funds for Opération Enfant Soleil and promoting its exceptional work with young people. For the third consecutive year, HGrégoire is turning to social networks to reach over 500,000 people, mainly in Quebec.

« Children are our future and we want them to be healthy. We feel very strongly about this cause and we hope that our subscribers will get involved with this important fundraiser and learn more about Opération Enfant Soleil’s work with local children.” says Harry Kasparian, Vice President at HGrégoire.

As part of this initiative, the automotive group will donate $0.25 to Opération Enfant Soleil for each user-posted comment about the video ad featuring little Madyson Letovsky, the star of the campaign. Just one week after its release, the video was viewed 500,000 times and received more than 30,000 comments.

This year, the company has set a campaign fundraising goal of $40,000 and is counting on support from its staff and from the public. The total amount raised will be revealed June 2^ndduring the Opération Enfant Soleil Telethon.

« The exceptional contribution of partners and generous donors will allow us to contribute to the improvement of paediatric care in Quebec,” said David Archambault, Senior Director of Opération Enfant Soleil. « Thanks to you, children and their families have hope for the future. Thank you! »

In addition to the online campaign, HGrégoire has pledged to raise funds for Opération Enfant Soleil by contributing a portion of the proceeds to various initiatives, including the employee race, the staff Christmas celebration, ticket sales from the Maison Enfant Soleil and Passeport de rêve draws.
