Marie-Vincent would like to acknowledge the phenomenal involvement of Juliette Comtois Béïque, a dedicated real estate broker whose commitment to our mission since 2023 continues to impress. Juliette spearheaded a myriad of initiatives to support our cause: her generosity knows no bounds! She pledged to donate $200 to Marie-Vincent for every house she sells, helps to build greater awareness of our mission with her clients as well as the general public, and sells some of our promotional items. She also volunteers some of her free time to help out with our activities.

This past March, Juliette rose to quite an invigorating challenge: a daily ice bath plunge. She filmed and posted her daring endeavour on her social media accounts, encouraging her followers to donate to Marie-Vincent. This challenge culminated on March 29 at La Berge aux Quatre-Vents when Juliette, surrounded by family, friends and members of the Live Without Fear movement, plunged in the icy, 7-degree Celsius water of Rivière des Mille Îles! And to date, her challenge has raised over $4,500 for Marie-Vincent!

Juliette knows that her determination to support Marie-Vincent’s mission is driven by her wish to help build a protective community for young people:

“Most of us know someone who was victim of sexual violence in their childhood—a loved one, a friend, a family member—often without us even knowing it. Not only does Marie-Vincent provide vital support to young victims and their loved ones, it’s also breaking taboos surrounding this sensitive subject through training and awareness initiatives and by creating useful tools. Marie-Vincent has worked miracles for kids who experienced the unthinkable and that’s why I’m committed to this cause!”

We want to express our deep gratitude and warm congratulations to Juliette for her dedication and generosity toward Marie-Vincent. We sincerely hope that her actions will inspire others to commit to our cause, whether at work or at play. Each gesture and donation makes a real difference in helping young people who overcame the unimaginable look toward a more hopeful future.
