The Mayor Régis Labeaume and the City Council of Quebec City praised the work of the founders of the crowdfunding platform La Ruche

The excellent work done by co-founders and ambassadors of the crowdfunding platform La Ruche, in which Vincent Bergeron is involved, was praised by the Mayor and the City Council of Quebec City on September 15, 2014, at the City Council meeting.

La Ruche is a nonprofit crowdfunding platform exclusive to the region of Quebec City and developed by the organization Ça bouge! It aims to promote the city and the region, to boost the local economy and to stimulate individual initiative and citizen involvement. It therefore offers people a simple and effective way to initiate projects or to encourage those that arouse their interest by supporting them morally of financially.

Since its launch in 2013, La Ruche has funded 43 projects for a total of $ 310,000 through more than 5,000 contributors.
