A makeshift camp near Notre-Dame Street in Montreal.
Jean-Pier Gravel, producer and broadcaster at Rythme FM, has always tried to do things differently, and with a big heart. With Le Missionnaire and with the help of his partners, Jean-Pier wants to pamper those who need it.
He imagined the initiative chaleurcontrefroid and asked Le Missionnaire’s followers to provide a dose of warmth to people that work or live outside in the polar cold: coffee, mittens, scarves, hot chocolate, blankets, sweets.
He wanted to pursue the project by visiting us at the Mission, where he had the opportunity to meet Teodor, one of our supervisors, and to accompany Daniel and Patrice aboard the Mission’s shuttle during its circuit.
He tells us how he spent the evening with us (blog in French).
