BORN TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE
A philanthropist at heart, Marie-Soleil says she was born to make a difference where help is needed. For Marie-Soleil, it’s essential to get involved in order to change what’s wrong with our communities. According to Marie-Soleil, everyone must eat three meals a day, people suffering from illness must have access to specialists, friends of society, our elders must be able to live freely and safely, and young children must be able to flourish freely.
Committed to the causes that are closest to her heart, Marie-Soleil gets involved in a variety of ways with her non-profit organizations,
Make-A-Wish® / Rêves d’enfantsᴹᴰ Canada :
After her first season of competitive karting, Marie-Soleil is living her biggest dream every time she takes to the track. Since there’s a lot of waiting between her track outings, she wonders which foundation takes care of making sick children’s dreams come true. Marie-Soleil met the Director of Rêves d’enfants Division Québec Ouest in August 2018 and became a junior ambassador for Rêves d’enfants Division Québec Ouest. Following the merger of the Make-A-Wish® and Rêves d’enfantsᴹᴰ foundations in November 2019 that Make-A-Wish® / Rêves d’enfantsᴹᴰ Canada is born. Despite the pandemic, Marie-Soleil continues to raise donations to help make the foundation’s biggest wish for seriously ill children come true. In July 2020, Marie-Soleil presents over $10,000.00 to Make-A-Wish® / Rêves d’enfantsᴹᴰ Canada. Marie-Soleil is back with a vengeance for a seventh consecutive year.
