Keeping Butterfly Boy's Dream Alive: The Government of Canada Workplace Charitable Campaign (GCWCC)

Keeping Butterfly Boy's Dream Alive: The Government of Canada Workplace Charitable Campaign (GCWCC)

Tina Boileau has experienced what no parent should ever have to: watching her child suffer. Her son Jonathan Pitre, also known as Butterfly Boy, was born with Epidermolysis Bullosa (EB), an extremely painful, little-known disease with no cure. Despite living in constant pain, Jonathan never stopped trying to achieve his dream of raising awareness about EB and finding a cure. Sadly, Jonathan passed away before his dream could become a reality, but it carries on today through his mother.

In honour of EB Awareness Week and as part of the 2018 GCWCC, please join us for this special event with Tina to learn more about EB and how our support for the GCWCC can help keep Jonathan's dream alive.
