A star-studded event organized by the Martin Matte Foundation to raise funds for individuals living with traumatic brain injuries or physical disabilities has exceeded all expectations by generating a staggering total of $552,000!
Martin Matte, the renowned comedian and philanthropist, expressed his pride in the achievement, stating, ‘Benefit evening for the Fondation Martin-Matte last night. Beautiful people, lots of love, and $552,000 to help victims of brain injuries.’
With the substantial sum collected, the Foundation, which annually supports over 1,000 families, aims to establish new Martin-Matte Houses in the near future.
The event, attended by various personalities including the iconic Yvon Deschamps, saw the likes of Judy and Cloutier posing alongside the legendary comedian during the annual fundraising extravaganza for the Fondation Martin-Matte.
‘With Judy and Yvon at the benefit evening of the Fondation Martin-Matte,’ excitedly shared Cloutier.
Rosalie humorously quipped, ‘When my friend thinks Yvon Deschamps is my lover ahahahahaha,’ making light of the entertaining atmosphere.
At the 17th edition of the gala held at the Olympia de Montréal, Martin Matte took the stage with the talented pianist Sarah, while MCs Luc and Marie ensured the smooth running of this magnificent evening.
Congratulations to all involved in this successful event, which once again proved to be a remarkable accomplishment in supporting those in need.
