This tree is located at the main entrance of the Maisonneuve-Rosemont Hospital.
It is dedicated to M. François Duffar.
Mr. Duffar was personally responsible for raising millions of dollars for the Maisonneuve-Rosemont Hospital Foundation in Montreal and was equally influential in fund-raising activities on behalf of St. Justine’s, a hospital for children in Montreal.
Other organizations in which Mr. Duffar is actively involved include the Montreal Heart Institute and Domaine Forget, a music school at University Laval.
La campagne de levée de fonds de la Fondation de l'Hôpital Maisonneuve-Rosemont de 2004 a permis de récolter plus de 18 millions de dollars grâce au travail de M.François Duffar.
Ce chêne, planté devant l'entrée principale de l'hôpital est un témoignage de remerciement.
Sur la plaque, on peut lire :
"Ce chêne des marais est dédié à M. François Duffar pour sa contribution exceptionnelle à la campagne majeure de développement "Grandissons de toutes nos forces" 2000-2005. Puisse ce chêne grandir, lui aussi, de toutes ses forces et témoigner de notre immense reconnaissance.
La Fondation de l'Hôpital Maisonneuve-Rosemont."
