Solidarity was on full display at Pratt Park on Sunday, May 3, 2026, as close to 550 people gathered for the 6th edition of Maison St‑Raphaël’s Walk for Dignity. Thanks to the outstanding commitment of the community—whether by walking, donating, or supporting the event as partners—an incredible total of $443,567 was raised in support of the Maison’s mission.
The event brought together more than 400 walkers, supported by nearly 150 volunteers. After completing the 1 km and 5 km routes through the Côte‑des‑Neiges and Outremont neighbourhoods, participants enjoyed a friendly community barbecue at Pratt Park.
