A little more about Nouvelle Chance...
Nouvelle Chance is a non-profit organization celebrating its 41st anniversary. Our social mission is to improve the quality of life and well-being of the community. We fight poverty and social isolation by supporting individuals and families experiencing financial hardship, vulnerability, or isolation. To achieve this, we operate a resource center (thrift store) that provides assistance, education, information, and emergency aid, offering essential goods such as food, clothing, furniture, and appliances free of charge.
Why raise funds through an auction?
In order to continue our activities, we must take care of our infrastructure. Therefore, in 2025, we will begin major renovations and upgrades to our building to bring it up to standard. To do this, we are asking for your support and inviting you to participate in our fundraising event dedicated to this project, which will take the form of an auction on March 29, 2025.
This event will be open to everyone, and we would be delighted to welcome you as a participant. Be sure to follow us on social media to stay updated on the event’s progress and discover all upcoming details.
All funds raised through this fundraising initiative will be fully dedicated to our renovation project. Every contribution matters, and your support is essential in allowing us to continue providing vital services throughout the MRC Roussillon region.
We sincerely thank you for your valuable support, which helps us continue our commitment to the community.
