MONTREAL, Dec. 02, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Moisson Montreal has completed the production of 42,000 Holiday Baskets, the culmination of months of work to gather the 20 items included in each box through numerous partners. Since early October, up to 100 volunteers per day took turns assembling the baskets. The “Moisson de Noel,” held on Friday, made it possible to produce the final 5,000 boxes, marking the last major effort before the Grand Distribution on December 12.
“Behind every Holiday Basket lies a gesture of solidarity and a message of hope. This operation is the result of tremendous collective work. We are now ready for the Grand Distribution on December 12.”
— Chantal Vezina, Executive Director
A detailed media advisory will be shared in the coming days to offer journalists an opportunity to cover the Grand Distribution on December 12, which will be the key media moment of the holiday season.
“These boxes will now make their way to where they matter most: onto the tables of families who need support during the holidays.”
— Chantal Vezina
