Held at the always fabulous Maison Principale, the 8th annual gala brought together an incredible community of supporters for a beautiful evening of generosity, entertainment and, most importantly, purpose.

Diary is so proud to once again support such a special evening and important cause. Major power to founder and driving force Barry F. Lorenzetti, his incredible sponsors and partners, and the enviable dream team behind it all, who continue to raise the bar while creating meaningful change where it matters most.

This man still finds ways to amaze me. He built one of the largest privately owned businesses in Canada, received the Order of Canada last year, and still found the time to help raise $1 million for his foundation last Thursday.

Being around someone like this is truly inspiring. It’s a reminder that we’re all capable of dreaming bigger, giving back, and doing something meaningful in this world. @fondation.lorenzetti

This was Thursday evening at @fondation.lorenzetti 8th Annual Gala. What an incredible night! It was great seeing family, former colleagues, and so many new faces.

The entertainment was second to none, and most importantly, $1,000,000 was raised for an incredible cause. A truly special night for everyone involved! 🙏❤️

THE LEGEND LIVES ON TONIGHT: What makes a legend? For Montreal business titan, philanthropist and all-around inspirationalist Barry F. Lorenzetti, the answer has as much to do with what we give back as what we achieve.

While there's no doubt that Founder and Chairperson of @bflcanada Barry has built an unstoppabke business empire,it's ultimately his unswerving commitment to family, community and making a meaningful difference that truly speaks to his heart.

Inspired by a deeply personal family story, Barry established the @fondation.lorenzetti in 2015, honouring a promise to support veterans struggling with PTSD. Today, under the leadership of his daughter, Dr. Maggie Lorenzetti Dorfman, and an invaluable dream team, the Foundation continues to change lives through its vital mental health initiatives.

And tonight, that beautiful legacy takes centre stage as Montreal's philanthropic and social communities come together @maison.principale for the much-anticipated annual LORENZETTI GALA boasting a Parisian theme.

Socials, as longtime supporters of Barry and his wonderful team, Diary is especially excited to celebrate this extraordinary cause and share the magic of tonight's festivities with you.

For more on the man, the mission and the inspiring story behind it all, head to diaryofasocialgal.com for Darcy MacDonald's exclusive feature, HOW TO BUILD A LEGEND THAT LIVES ON, in our new LEGEND'S CORNER.

Stay tuned for a fabulous peek inside tonight's gala!

BIG THINGS HAPPENING FOR THE COMMUNITY
Construction has officially begun on this year’s major project with the @goalinitiatives and @patricebernierfondation in Verdun! ⚽️

The transformation is underway, and the new pitch is scheduled to be completed in time for the start of the new school year. We can’t wait for everyone to see the finished result and, most importantly, to see the kids and community enjoying this incredible new space.

Your continued support of our foundations has helped make projects like this possible. Every contribution, partnership and person who has supported us along the way is helping turn this vision into a reality.

A huge thank you to everyone involved, and a special thank you to @gtrturf.canada for working with us to bring this entire project together while respecting our budget.

We can’t wait to unveil the finished pitch.
This is what community is all about. ❤️⚽️

36,725 km covered. 555 participants. $26,303 raised. One cause: mental health.

As part of our national Walk the Talk competition, our company employees came together around a common goal: covering as many kilometres as possible in support of the Barry F. Lorenzetti Foundation.

From the Atlantic coast to the sweeping landscapes of the Rockies and all the way to the Pacific shoreline, our teams walked and ran together, turning every kilometre into a shared effort with real purpose. Beyond the physical challenge, this initiative brought colleagues closer together and deepened our commitment to a cause that means so much to all of us.

Every step makes a difference well beyond the finish line, and every kilometre helps build something bigger than any one of us. A huge congratulations to all the participants for their energy, their dedication, and their contribution to this vital cause. 💙

GOAL MTL 2026 was action-packed from the first whistle to the last. Massive props to every single player who laced up, embraced the rain and left it all on the pitch. A heartfelt thank you as well to @susan.dabrowski of @fondation.lorenzetti , @pbernier10 of @patricebernierfondation , and @senatortonyloffreda for taking the mic and reminding everyone why we’re here: football, community, youth sports and wellness.

The vibes stayed high all day long. The football was fun as hell. The live matches on the jumbotron brought everyone together. And thanks to every person who showed up, grabbed a drink, bought merch or made a donation, we raised funds that will have a lasting impact on young people across our city.

Now it’s time to turn our attention to Team Canada

We’ll all be behind you on July 4 against Morocco. Thank you for continuing to inspire the next generation and for helping elevate football in Canada to heights we could only dream about years ago.

Allez les Rouges. 🍁⚽️
