Oberson climbs Everest for The Children's
![Banniere Banniere](https://fondationduchildren.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/oberson.jpg)
We like our children to be bratty, not sick! With action at the heart of our values, we are launching the second edition of Everesting for The Montreal Children's Hospital. Through this fundraiser, we hope once again to give young patients all the energy they need to get back on their feet and keep having fun. Oberson, in collaboration with its valued partners Boréale and BFL Canada, are taking on the challenge of climbing 8848 metres on the Camillien-Houde path in Montreal.
On August 25, between 7 a.m. and noon, we're taking on this huge challenge and pedalling together to raise funds as impressive as the summit of Mount Everest! The funds raised will go towards research at Quebec's first and only primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) clinic. This department of The Montreal Children's Hospital has a very special place in our hearts. This unit is responsible for the follow-up, treatment and hospitalisation of little Frédérique Tremblay Oberson. It's in our DNA to make a difference in our community. Although children account for 25% of the population, only 10% of research is devoted to them. Every donation goes a long way. It attracts an extra seven to ten dollars in public funding to help families whose last hope lies in research.
On 25 August, we'll be riding for research, and especially for children. Encourage us to reach our summit!
