In January, Hotel Saint-Sulpice Montreal support: Autisme Montréal

Over the past year, the Hotel Saint-Sulpice has been implementing a sustainable development program. In January, we support Autisme Montréal.

The principle is simple: we invite our guests who stay at the hotel for more than one night not to use the housekeeping service. By doing so, our guests are helping to reduce their ecological footprint, and they’re also contributing to our monthly collection, since for every day they refuse, the hotel donates $5 to a charity close to our hearts.

 

In January, Guillaume Holterbach chose to support the organization Autism Montreal, which aims to improve the living conditions of individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD).

 

Autisme Montréal is an inspiring and unifying place, carrying hope, development, and social solidarity. At Autisme Montréal, the underlying idea is that the living conditions of individuals with autism and their families can be improved. Emphasis is placed on the importance of greater openness, solidarity, and a shared intention to provide them with quality services, thereby enabling their development, flourishing, and integration within their community.

 

ATEDM’s primary mandate is:

  • To advocate for the rights and interests of people with autism and those of their families.
  • To promote and to sensitize the health, education, research communities, and the general population, to the needs of people with autism.
  • To develop direct services to answer the needs of people with autism and their families.

We’re counting on you and your support, and we’d like to thank you in advance!

In the month of December, Perle Krebs chose the Welcome Hall Mission, which helps Montrealers in need.

Established in 1892, Welcome Hall Mission is the largest doorway to help for Montrealers in need. Programs and resources are available to support people experiencing homelessness, families living in precarity, young and single mothers, at-risk youth and the elderly.

The festive season takes on its full meaning with food aid and concrete solutions for families, single mothers and young people in difficulty. Our team is also proud to be involved with this association, volunteering their time to distribute food during the festive season.

We’re counting on you and your support, and we’d like to thank you in advance!

Travelling from Maine to Montreal is a breeze, and there are a couple of fantastic options to consider. The most convenient ways are by car or flight. If you choose to drive, the scenic route from Portland to Montreal is approximately 280 miles, taking around 4.5 hours. Alternatively, flights from Portland International Jetport provide a quick and efficient means of transportation. Often with just one stop over, the trip by plane would take on average 8-10 hours. While Amtrak and various bus services like Greyhound are available, they involve multiple transfers and significantly extend travel time, making driving or flying the preferred options.

The bilingual nature of the city, where both French and English thrive, adds an extra layer of charm. The vibrant nightlife downtown and on the infamous Boulevard St-Laurent are sure to please visitors looking to dance and enjoy great DJs. If you want to embrace winter in all its glory, Montreal is the place to be as daily lows average 6.8 °F during the coldest periods versus 35°F in Portland; so be sure to bundle up. Montreal is the ideal escape for those seeking a different kind of winter experience.

In conclusion, Montreal beckons with its winter charm, and the journey from Maine to this vibrant city promises a memorable experience. Whether indulging in cultural festivities, exploring the old-world charm of the Old Port, or simply enjoying the warmth of a luxury hotel like Le Saint-Sulpice, your winter escape to Montreal is bound to be nothing short of magical.

Développement durable

In November, we support: FRED Foundation

In November, Hotel Saint-Sulpice Montreal support: FRED Foundation

Over the past year, the Hotel Saint-Sulpice has been implementing a sustainable development program. In November, we are supporting FRED Foundation.

The principle is simple: we invite our guests who stay at the hotel for more than one night not to use the housekeeping service. By doing so, our guests are helping to reduce their ecological footprint, and they’re also contributing to our monthly collection, since for every day they refuse, the hotel donates $5 to a charity close to our hearts.

In the month of November, Sarah Perrin chose the FRED Foundation, which works to improve the quality of life for families, children, and adolescents affected by diabetes throughout the province of Quebec.

Since its foundation in 1974, the Foundation Resources for Diabetic Children has committed as a non-profit organization to improve the lives of children, adolescents, and families affected by type 1 diabetes (T1D) throughout Quebec. Our Foundation was created with the goal of building a supportive community and providing essential resources to families facing the challenges of managing T1D in children.

 

The Mission of FRED Foundation:

FRED contributes to the daily well-being of families, children, and adolescents living with type 1 diabetes throughout the province of Quebec and provides a unique specialized summer camp experience for young diabetics.

FRED’s initial mission was to meet the pressing needs of Camp Carowanis, Quebec’s camp for type 1 diabetic children. Over the years, recognizing the needs of children and families, the Foundation gradually expanded its services: telephone support, training and information activities, opportunities for parents to meet and share, awareness initiatives, gathering of pediatric diabetes health professionals, and other social events.

Through their various programs and initiatives, their goal is to equip families with the tools and knowledge needed to navigate the complexities of diabetes care while breaking the isolation for children living with T1D. They emphasize overall well-being and inclusion, striving to create a healthier and brighter future for all children affected by diabetes.

We’re counting on you and your support, and we’d like to thank you in advance!

Le Saint-Sulpice Hotel supports the arthritis Society of Canada with its Green Program

In October, our collection will be dedicated to the Arthritis Society of Canada.

Sophie Légaré, our Housekeeping Manager, chose the Arthritis Society of Canada for the monthly fundraising from our Green Program. Sophie is particularly sensitive to this cause and explains why: ‘I chose this cause because my mother has suffered from severe rheumatoid arthritis for 27 years. Thanks to the Arthritis Society of Canada, which covered the cost of treatment, my mother participated in trial treatments (as a guinea pig) REMICADE. Without these treatments, she would have been in a wheelchair and completely immobile for 25 years. I would like today to be able to collect a nice sum of money so that other people can benefit from their support in turn. I also have a very close friend who is only 47 years old, and who is no longer part of active life because of this same disease. It is a disease that is very painful for the person who has it. It immobilizes and in fact impacts all members of the family. It is relatively unknown and even children can be affected.’

Throughout the month of October, we invite guests who stay at the hotel to contribute to our collection by refusing housekeeping. For each refusal, the hotel Le Saint-Sulpice collects $5/day.

Since June, the hotel has launched the Green Program, which aims to promote all actions of sustainable and social development. Both through the financial support of organizations, but also in the daily management of the hotel: in waste management, energy saving, choice of suppliers, recycling…

We are a national charity with local impact. Your donations make a difference for people living with arthritis in every province. Thank you!

Arthritis is Canada’s most common chronic disease, scorching the lives of approximately 1.25 million people in Quebec. The Arthritis Society is committed to helping all Canadians fight the fire of arthritis with research, advocacy, innovation and information and support.

Donor support enables us to invest in research to better understand, diagnose and treat arthritis, with a goal to one day extinguish it for good.
