The Québec Law Enforcement Torch Run (LETR) members are delighted to present, in partnership with Walmart Canada, the Toonies for Torches campaign to benefit Special Olympics Québec.

From July 3rd to July 16th, 2010, the 54 Walmart stores in Québec presented the Toonies for Torches campaign. During the 10 days, Walmart customers were invited to purchase torches for $2 each.

The 2010 campaign raised over $80,000 and will help provide over 4,100 Québec special athletes with training and competition programs designed to increase their well-being, self-sufficiency, self-esteem and social integration.     

On behalf of the 4,100 Special Olympics athletes, Maxime Clavette, Jessyca Gendron and Shawn McKenna thank all Quebec Walmart stores for their generosity.
