DANIEL OUELLET
Québec, Quebec
For several years now, Daniel Ouellet has brought his workmates together in an ambitious project to benefit those living in poverty. First, he identifies families in the community and compiles lists of goods that will best meet their individual needs. Then he and his companions assemble and store the items to be gift-wrapped in time for Christmas. When the big day comes, Mr. Ouellet and his team demonstrate the true meaning of Christmas by delivering gifts to all the families on the list. Mr. Ouellet's compassionate and generous idea has provided hope for many families, especially children.
