our impact

Built to grow with a mission to give back

The Foundation and its partners invest in youth, community, and opportunity, creating lasting change. Together, we believe that when people thrive, entire communities are transformed.

OUR PURPOSE

Built on a Dream

Established in 2022, the Foundation is dedicated to helping youth reach their full potential while driving lasting, positive transformation in the community. Based in Montreal, Quebec, the Foundation brings together passionate partners and community leaders to create meaningful impact where it matters most.

Our commitment to corporate social responsibility is reflected in our pledge to donate up to 1% of Valsoft's after-tax revenue to the Foundation.

Our Commitment

Every dollar donated becomes two

All Valsoft entities contribute 1% of their profits to the Foundation every year, in addition to participating in and hosting several fundraising events throughout the year. The Foundation also matches all funds raised, doubling our impact.

Words from our founders

  • Steph headshot

    We came from very humble beginnings, so we understand what it means to want things, to not have what you might need to get by, or to struggle just to provide everyday necessities. We want our Foundation to help as many people as possible across this city

    Stephane Manos

    Chairman of the Board, Co-Founder of Valsoft

  • Sam headshot

    "True impact isn't measured by what we build for ourselves, but by the good we leave behind for others. Our Foundation exists to turn challenges into opportunities. To make sure that families across this city not only get by today, but have the hope and resources to thrive tomorrow."
