The Sofia Foundation is a non-profit organization located in Roberval, Quebec, Canada, that provides assistance to single mothers in great need around Lac St-Jean. The JOSH RV, renovated for them, is loaned FREE OF CHARGE in an "all-inclusive" package, including groceries, treats, and gifts, to mothers and their children for a 2-night respite stay, offering relaxation and hope, embracing a YES TO LIFE! For the 2023 season, log cabins was also part of the project, from mid-June to early October. 29 stays were offered to 29 families, consisting of single mothers and their children, totaling approximately 90 individuals. They, in turn, share their experiences with others and pay it forward with gratitude for what they have received! However, the impact is even greater as this mission also resonates with all the donors, FB followers (880), members of the Board of Directors(7) & volunteers. Touching hearts has an exponential ripple effect!

Advocate for this project:

The children said it best:
"I made friends for the first time." "I found my family... my mom." "I love my family, we played together, we never do that normally." "It's the best day of my life!" "Mom, can we stay here forever?"
