MONTREAL, Oct. 27, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Last year,
Solios' founders made the promise to raise $25,000 for the Make-A-Wish foundation at the 48h
bike ride challenge.
But then, 2020 happened. Make-A-Wish lost its biggest
fundraising event in Canada, as
they had to cancel it.
That didn't stop us from keeping our promise. It motivated us
even more. After several brainstorming sessions, we finally came up
with the idea behind our latest project: our first limited-edition
watch, honouring the foundation's colours. A watch that would give
back to the cause.

$50 per watch. 500 watches. A
$25,000 objective.
Our most fashionable solar watch to date gives back in style:
$50 per timepiece will be donated to
the foundation. Our aim: to raise $25,000 in donations for children in critical
conditions.
This special watch features our first blue dial, which comes
with an eco vegan leather strap echoing Make-A-Wish's official
colours. The foundation's logo is also engraved on the back case
and the watch comes beautifully packed in a unique box handmade in
Montreal.
Still our minimalist design. Still sustainable.
Still solar powered. But now comes with a bigger
impact.
Why Make-A-Wish?
A long-standing relationship exists between Make-A-Wish and our
founders, Sam and Alex. Having both seen firsthand the positive
impact of wishes being granted for close family members, they
decided a few years ago to tangibly contribute to the cause by
becoming volunteers. For Sam, it even represents its most cherished
memory, as he got the chance to visit Walt
Disney World with his family.
For more than seven years, Solios' founders have been taking
part in different fundraising initiatives, and have recently become
"wishes volunteers", accompanying families in need.

By meeting our $25,000 objective,
we will be able to adopt multiple wishes and our founders will be
accompanying the families who benefitted from the donations. We
can't put words on much this limited-edition makes us proud. It
truly is our most fashionable watch to date, and it comes with the
biggest impact.
It is now time to amplify its impact even more. Thanks to
support like yours, we're able to keep our promise and make a real
difference in these children's lives. Whoever puts their hands on
the Make-A-Wish limited-edition watch will be sure of two things:
they will look good, but mostly do good.
