| Happy holidays to all! | |
| This holiday season, we are especially grateful to everyone who makes our success possible. This year was full of new partnerships and programs. Thanks to your commitment, JA Quebec was able to prepare the entrepreneurs of tomorrow and helped connect over 6,000 students with nearly 600 business community volunteers. There's lots of new and exciting challenges in store for us in 2018, and we're happy to know that we can count on your support and involvement for another year. Best wishes for a healthy and happy New Year, to you and your family. From all of us at JA Quebec, thank you for supporting us and happy holidays! |
