Supporting the CHU Sainte-Justine Foundation: Our Commitment

At LICA Wear, we have chosen to associate our online store with the CHU Sainte-Justine Foundation. Since the brand's creation, this cause has been particularly close to our hearts, and we wanted to explain why and how you can contribute when you shop.

Why the CHU Sainte-Justine Foundation

CHU Sainte-Justine is a renowned pediatric hospital in Quebec. Every year, thousands of children and families benefit from its specialized care. The Foundation funds medical research projects, the purchase of state-of-the-art equipment, and support programs for families going through difficult times.

As a mother of two young boys, this cause deeply resonates with me. Having access to quality pediatric care in Quebec is an opportunity that not everyone shares equally. Contributing to supporting this hospital, even modestly, is a concrete way to make a difference for families in need.

How to contribute when you shop

When you check out on our online store, you have the option to add a donation directly to your order. The suggested amounts are $1, $5, $10, or $20.

All donations are given to the CHU Sainte-Justine Foundation. This is not an official partnership with the Foundation: it's our way, as a Quebec brand, of making an annual contribution to a cause that is important to us.

Why every contribution counts

Small donations, when combined, help fund concrete projects: modernization of treatment rooms, purchase of medical equipment, research programs, and psychological support for families. These resources allow CHU Sainte-Justine to continue providing quality care to all children, regardless of their condition.

A commitment that aligns with our values

LICA Wear is a brand designed in Montreal, by a woman, for women. Our seamless underwear is carefully designed, ethically manufactured in a BSCI and GRS certified factory, and built to last.

Supporting the CHU Sainte-Justine Foundation naturally fits into this approach: acting with care, contributing to one's community, and making choices that have meaning beyond the product itself.
