Laurentian Bank
It is a tremendous privilege for me to assume the honorary presidency of the Exquisite Evening 2025. Having been involved with Tel-jeunes for over 10 years, I understand the importance of supporting young people in their journey towards a promising future. Tel-jeunes is doing an exceptional job to ensure the accessibility of services to teenagers.

The mental health of our young people must be a priority for all of us. I firmly believe that a young person who is heard, valued, and reassured will have confidence in their resources for the future.

Together, we can offer a promising future to Quebec's youth. Let's make the Exquisite Evening 2025 a real success!

Evening Schedule

This evening goes straight to the point: bringing together the business community to create a quality moment supporting an essential service that helps youths navigate adolescence. Tel-jeunes has been there, without judgment, for over 30 years.
