The\u00a0Jean-Pierre Tchang Award<\/em>\u00a0was created in 2009 to highlight, annually, the exceptional contribution of one of our volunteers to the IRIS Mundial mission. The 2020 award was presented to Mrs. Marie-Claude Cossette during the IRIS Mundial 20th anniversary event because it could not be given during a gathering in 2020. On this occasion, her two long-time friends, Drs. Lyne Par\u00e9 and Marie-Carole B\u00e9gin, who are themselves IRIS Mundial volunteers, gave a wonderful speech in her honour.<\/p>\n Marie-Claude\u2019s involvement started in 2003, after meeting Dr. Jean-Pierre Tchang, the IRIS Mundial\u2019s founder, during a trip to Peru the previous year. She immediately joined the organization and took part in a one-time project in Huaraz, Peru. In total, she participated to nine missions with IRIS Mundial, usually as a nurse and one time as the Volunteer manager. She was also a member of the board of directors from June 2017 to November 2019. She is a very dedicated, friendly and smiling person with whom it is always pleasant to deal with. Thank you for your involvement and your big heart, dear Marie-Claude!<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_2,1_2″ _builder_version=”4.13.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.13.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/irismundial.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/Prix-JPT-2020-Marie-Claude-scaled.jpg” title_text=”Prix JPT 2020 – Marie-Claude” _builder_version=”4.13.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.13.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/irismundial.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/Prix-JPT-2020-Marie-Claude-2.jpg” title_text=”Prix JPT 2020 – Marie-Claude -2″ _builder_version=”4.13.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The\u00a0Jean-Pierre Tchang Award\u00a0was created in 2009 to highlight, annually, the exceptional contribution of one of our volunteers to the IRIS Mundial mission.
