The Cégep de la Gaspésie et des Îles Foundation is proud to support the innovative Out Together project. Out Together is an intervention activity in a nature and adventure context (INA), which will take place at Forillon National Park, in January 2025 in the form of a 3-day cross-country skiing/snowshoeing expedition with 2 nights in a yurt .Supervised by a team of adventure tourism professionals, students from Cégep de la Gaspésie et des Îles and health professionals, the activity will be offered to people with breast cancer present in the territory of the Gaspésie and Ile-de-la-Madeleine. Students will thus be able to acquire new knowledge in the INA context and apply it in a unique field experience.This expedition project responds to a need to come together, meet and share together a unique and powerful experience between people with breast cancer in our region. Currently, few programs and experiences related to the INA are offered in our territory for people with cancer. This project is a great opportunity to implement such a program here by local people!This expedition project will have a positive impact on each of the participants:✔ Increase confidence and self-esteem (no longer define yourself by your illness)✔ Build links with people living a similar reality, promote networking✔ Be an integral part of a project where everyone contributes to a common objective✔ Surpass yourself, rediscover yourself, (re)connect with yourself✔ Explore and develop knowledge, skills and know-how related to the outdoors and the Gaspé region✔ Break isolation✔ Live and contribute to an experience out of the ordinary and out of your comfort zoneFor all these reasons, thank you for contributing to this innovative project.Every dollar is appreciated to help make the project a reality. PS: The platform is Quebec and free, but if an additional donation is suggested at the end of the transaction, you can reset it.
