Monique rises higher!

Monique Morin Savoie radiates a lifetime of inspiring accomplishments, and her stellar career never overshadowed her unwavering commitment to family.

A nurturing figure, Monique lovingly raised her family, even taking one of her sisters under her wing. Despite not having much help herself, she consistently dedicated herself to the well-being of others.

For more than a decade, Monique held onto a dream - to soar through the skies in a hot-air balloon. Despite previous unsuccessful attempts, her resolve only deepened with time. On her 88th birthday, she finally made it happen thanks to The Chartwell Foundation! Monique floated through the air in a majestic balloon, taking part in the awe-inspiring experience.

For Monique, this experience was the culmination of a lifetime of selflessness— a moment of wonder just for her. "What I feel is beyond words; it’s so strong", she said.
