  • ▼▼ FINANCING ▼▼

    Financement PME MTL

    A new chapter is being written. We have just received a first payment of $20,000 from PME MTL Centre-Ville for the launch of LESPACEMAKER.

    We owe considerable thanks to Jason Prince who was without a doubt the catalyst for our public fundraising efforts. We couldn’t have hoped for a better advisor to represent our project. He instantly understood not only the social value of LESPACEMAKER, but also its character and uniqueness.

    On behalf of the entire LESPACEMAKER community, thank you, Jason Prince! Thank you, PME MTL!

    We would like to plan the space based on your interests and needs. This step is essential for the project because it will help us confirm the support of our financial partners.

  • DECEMBER 24 2016

    As you probably know, we are preparing the presentation of the project for the principal public subsidies next January. To strengthen the presentation of the project, we hope to include a list of all the interested parties that filled out the online survey.

    We are now up to 58 signatures.

    Project viability is estimated at 100 active members. To be coherent with this projection, we hope to file funding requests with a list of as this many signatories.

    Help us reach this objective by spreading the word about the project.
