Mondou Embarks on New Fundraising Campaign in Support of CHUV

Mondou has launched the first-ever edition of its Mondou Mondon campaign for the CHUV (Centre hospitalier universitaire vétérinaire). This major fundraising campaign, which will run from Dec. 1, 2022 to Jan. 16, 2023, aims to raise funds to acquire a new scanner, which will be used by the students of the Faculty of Veterinarian Medicine of the University of Montreal during their academic journey. Mondou therefore calls upon its loyal customers to give generously, through a number of means, in one of the 80 Mondou stores across Quebec or online at Mondou.

“It is vital to provide future veterinarians with cutting-edge tools, like the new scanner the CHUV wishes to acquire, to continue to diagnose and treat our animals. As a family-run business established in Quebec more than 80 years ago, Mondou’s mission is to give back to the community, as evidenced by this new fundraising campaign, which represents a means of supporting an internationally-recognized institution,” said Pierre Leblanc, Mondou’s General Manager.

The funds raised during the Mondou Mondon campaign for the CHUV will be directed towards the purchase of a new scanner, to ensure that the veterinarian hospital remains at the forefront of technology so that it may continue to provide quality care to the animals of Quebec.

Located in Saint-Hyacinthe, the CHUV offers a clinical expertise, premium care and client experience, centered on the well-being and health of animals. At the heart of a veterinary teaching and research faculty, it constitutes a unique platform for the education and advancement of knowledge of veterinarians and specialists. Recognized for the quality of its care and client services, the CHUV is a referral centre and a leader in animal health in Quebec, in Canada and in the international francophone community.

The CHUV treats on average more than 25,000 animals each year (domestic, farm, exotic and zoo animals, as well as horses and birds of prey), thanks to a multidisciplinary team consisting of 75 professors, 108 employees, 27 interns and 18 residents. Some of its services include surgery, medical imaging, internal medicine, dentistry, dermatology, sports medicine, reproduction, ophthalmology, neurology and spaying and neutering of pets.
