During the two months of his expedition, Gabriel will enjoy his LE Berendo’s espresso and Berendo sugar, two products that are fair trade and organic and will also enjoy the fine Inuit herbal teas Northern Deligths and Berendo’s hot chocolate.

This time around Gabriel is planning to climb the North Face of Everest, hoping to be the first Canadian to have climbed both sides of Everest. At the same time, Gabriel is raising funds for Juvenile Arthritis in order to allow children who have this disease to participate in a one week summer camp. Gabriel is bringing a photo of Kamille with him to the summit.  Kamille is the child with Juvenile Arthritis who is inspiring Gabriel on his trek.

We invite you to play the video and hear for yourself what motivates Gabriel on this current expedition.
