In support of the fifth edition of the Week of the White Rose, being held from November 30 to December 6, 2018, Polytechnique is reaching out to its entire community as well as the general public, to ask you to purchase a virtual white rose.

All proceeds from rose sales go to Folie Technique, Polytechnique Montréal’s science camp. With the funds raised, Folie Technique is able to give girls from disadvantaged communities the opportunity to take part in science awareness activities.

Since its inception, the Week of the White Rose has raised more than $60,000, enabling 5,000 girls to attend school science workshops and participate in the Folie Technique summer camp. This non-profit organization can’t keep up with the demand, however. The “100% girls” groups are so popular, the organization struggles to fulfil the many registration requests.
