Wheels of Hope Campaign

Together, let us give the residents more mobility!

The Prescott-Russell Residence Foundation is launching the Wheels of Hope  campaign to raise funds for the eventual purchase of a vehicle adapted for transporting people with reduced mobility.

This vehicle will enable residents, particularly those who use wheelchairs, to travel more safely and comfortably to their appointments, activities, and outings, thereby promoting their mobility, independence, and quality of life.

Enter the Grand Raffle

As part of the campaign, the Foundation is organizing a grand raffle with tickets priced at $20 each. Only 1,000 tickets are available, and proceeds from the raffle will go toward the eventual purchase of the adapted vehicle.

Four prizes, generously donated by the Foundation’s partners, can be won:

  • $3,000 at Asselin Independent;
  • $2,000 at Malaket Furniture;
  •  $1,000 in gift certificates from Déjà Vu Restaurant and Bar; and
  • A pair of tickets to the Montréal Canadiens versus New Jersey Devils game on March 27, 2027, valued at $850, courtesy of Mr. and Mrs. Yves Berthiaume.

The draw will take place on December 5, 2026, at 10 a.m., at the Prescott and Russell Residence, located at 900 Spence Street in Hawkesbury.

LIFT ME UP! CAMPAIGN

The Lift Me Up! campaign has officially ended, and what a success it was! Thanks to the incredible generosity of the donors, the Foundation has reached its goal in record time.

All the lift motors funded through this initiative are now installed in the new Residence and available to the residents. This equipment will directly improve their mobility, safety, and well-being, while also giving valuable support to the staff who care for them every day.

To all the  donors and partners, thank you! Their generosity turned an ambitious goal into a real achievement for the benefit of the residents and the  whole community.

Many thanks to the donors
