The cause: the Together for the HMR Fund
The Together for the HMR Fund was established to provide Hôpital Maisonneuve-Rosemont (HMR) with the resources needed to maintain excellence in care, research, and teaching, which are at the heart of the Hospital’s ability to deal with the pandemic and future challenges.
By giving, you are contributing to this Fund, which supports:
- the acquisition of state-of-the-art equipment and technology.
- the training of health care personal.
- increased screening capacity.
Dr. Marquis' Gin
Did you know that in addition to being head of intensive care at the Hôpital Maisonneuve-Rosemont, Dr. François Marquis is a gin enthusiast? Indeed, he is also one of the eight partners of Mirabel’s distillerie Côte des Saints. Other partners include molecular biologist Ann Brasey and radiologist Dr. Michel Dubé, who both work at the Hôpital Maisonneuve-Rosemont.
Côte des Saints Distillery
Côte des Saints is the story of a gang of enthusiasts—truly ambitious enthusiasts—who were prepared to scour the earth to create “products you dream about, elite products that would still be accessible to serious fans”, explains François Marquis.
