The Grand Rendez-vous: An Evening to Change Lives
More than just a fundraising event, it is a powerful moment of solidarity, emotion, and commitment to women facing homelessness, violence, or extreme vulnerability. Together, we celebrate their strength, resilience, and courage.
For over 92 years, Le Chaînon has welcomed the most vulnerable women in our society with dignity and compassion. Each year, more than 1,600 women find refuge, comfort, and a fresh start there. Your presence at the Grand Rendezvous is a meaningful act that directly supports this essential mission.
Each year, the Grand Rendez-vous of the Chaînon Foundation brings together nearly 400 guests from the business, cultural, and community sectors to celebrate Chaînon’s mission and support women facing vulnerability.
Join us for an unforgettable evening filled with heartfelt testimonials, artistic performances, a refined banquet, and a vibrant atmosphere of generosity. Together, let’s ensure that no woman is left behind.
The 2024 edition was marked by a deeply emotional and meaningful moment: the presentation of the Remarkable Woman Award to ten exceptional women in celebration of the Foundation’s 10th anniversary.
Created to honor women whose outstanding achievements have shaped Quebec and significantly advanced the cause of women, the Remarkable Woman Award recognizes influential figures from diverse fields business, arts and culture, science, and politics, who have broken barriers and paved the way for future generations.
These trailblazers dared to go where no one had gone before. Their courage, vision, and perseverance have transformed institutions, ways of thinking, and communities.
Through this award, we not only acknowledge their exceptional contributions but also celebrate their role as inspiring models. Remarkable Woman is an invitation to remember their accomplishments, honor their legacy, and encourage today’s and tomorrow’s women to follow in their footsteps, innovate, and dream big.
By celebrating these extraordinary women, we reaffirm our collective commitment to building a society where equality and opportunity are within reach for all.
