On March 16, the iconic Cabane du Coureur<\/strong><\/a> became the host site for the CHUM\u2019s \u201cSugar shack for epilepsy\u201d benefit. This beloved annual tradition, back for the eighth year in a row, gathered more than 180 guests for an evening of good food and merriment in support of the CHUM Epilepsy Group\u2019s work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A sizable sum for the CHUM<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The attendees happily gathered with friends and family to enjoy a delicious twist on Quebec\u2019s classic springtime experience. Generous portions were matched by generous contributions, enabling organizers to raise the hefty sum of over $62,000 for patients with epilepsy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

\u201cThe funds raised through the Sugar shack for epilepsy will help us treat people with epilepsy using the latest advances in knowledge and technology. We\u2019re incredibly lucky to have been able to count on such a compassionate community for the past eight years. Their continued support gives us the power to make a real difference in the lives of people with epilepsy,\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
