Established within the Foundation of Greater Montréal, the Fonds Valérie Dumaine (in memoriam) aims to support cancer research (prevention, detection, and treatment) as well as the provision of palliative and end-of-life care focused on compassion and dignity.
The money raised will be donated to the Cancer Research Society and Hospice Wellington.
This fonds has been created by Eric Fillion, partner of the Montreal designer Valérie Dumaine who died suddenly from cancer in Guelph, Ontario, on February 22, 2025.
