We are involved in various charitable and community causes in the Québec City area and are pleased to support a number of societies and foundations:
Alzheimer's disease
Société Alzheimer de Québec is a non-profit organization that was founded in 1986 Quebec City. Its mission is to support people with Alzheimer’s disease and their families, promote awareness of the disease, and contribute to research. Its services are free to the people in the Greater Quebec area. It is estimated that over 10,000 people suffer from Alzheimer’s disease in this region.

Société Alzheimer de Québec is affiliated with the Alzheimer Society of Canada and is a member of Fédération québécoise des Sociétés Alzheimer, which is comprised of 21 regional Alzheimer societies. Each offers programs and activities specifically designed to meet individual needs and benefit the patient.

Due to the growing number people affected by Alzheimer’s, families are seeking out these societies more and more. Though it remains impossible to cure Alzheimer’s disease and related disorders, there are treatments and other ways to foster the well-being of Alzheimer patients.
Le Centre de Psychopédagogique de Québec
Saint-François School is a valuable resource for children, parents, and schools. It provides personalized instruction from the third year of primary school through the third year of high school to encourage the social integration of girls and boys with special needs—
- By identifying and correcting behavioral problems and learning disabilities
- By using in-house methods to stimulate motivation and provide appropriate academic programs
- By allowing students to navigate a personal path toward readaptation that helps them appreciate what school has to offer
