In continuation of its community support of Opération Enfant Soleil, HGreg presented the organization with a cheque for $35,000 during its 34th telethon. This donation is in part the result of HGreg’s annual “One Comment, One Donation” fundraising campaign which donates $0.50 for every comment posted on its Facebook page.
The public spontaneously responded to the appeal launched by HGreg’s video that has accumulated more than 320,000 views and 6,000 comments.
« As an Enfant Soleil company, our main objective is to raise awareness among the public and our employees of the importance of contributing to the development of quality paediatric care in Quebec to improve the lives of sick children, » explains Harry Kasparian, Vice-President of marketing. “We are very happy to have been able to mobilize a large number of people for a 5th consecutive year thanks to our Facebook campaign.”
Since the start of this partnership, HGreg has donated more than $185,000 to Opération Enfant Soleil and intends to continue using its resources to help the organization.
