Educational Program

For several years, we have been offering free visits to schools on the south shore and in the Montérégie region to raise awareness and inform children about animal welfare. This educational program is possible thanks to our partner Desjardins.

What does our program represent?

Beyond just talking about animals within the classroom, this program allows for the teaching to the children important values such as empathy and taking resposibilty for an animal.


Our sponsorship with Desjardins has allowed us to develop educational materials such as activity books and video clips. These tools, both educational and fun, allow us to raise awareness and inform students about the importance of animal welfare, bite prevention and how to take good care of their four-legged friends.

How to benefit from our program?

Are you a teacher? A school board? A parent ? Are you interested in our program? Our program is offered to primary schools in the cities within our territory and Brossard.

Good values

The program instills essential values while highlighting the importance of animals in our lives, all the while insisting that these animals are not toys, and they represent a real commitment.


Awareness is the very first step in preventing abandonment. A well-informed child will become a responsible and prudent adult. It is therefore imperative for our body to be present on this front.

Since 2014

73 schools, 830 classes had our visit, 6 video capsules and 3 educational notebooks were created.

In total, 20,642 students were made aware of the animal cause.

  • Thank you for your involvement in the education of our youth. Animal welfare is important to me and is too often trivialized or ignored.

  • I would like to thank you for the little activity books. With my students, we discussed what a refuge is, we watched the 3 video capsules and then I gave them their little notebook. They were really happy! A big thank you, it was great!!
