On Saturday, October 4th, 2025, the Domaine du Ch\u00e2teau de Pommorio<\/a> hosted the very first edition of the Rallye du Coeur Bretagne<\/em>. Under a bright Breton sky, passionate drivers, families, children, and volunteers gathered to share an exceptional day filled with hope, solidarity\u2026 and heart.<\/p>\n

From early morning, participants filled the ch\u00e2teau grounds with smiles on their faces and hearts wide open. Very quickly, strong bonds were formed between the drivers and the children they were sponsoring \u2014 true little warriors who, for one day, set their illness aside to become co-drivers in a magnificent outpouring of hope.<\/p>\n

The opening to the public brought a wonderful energy: visitors, families, and car enthusiasts came to admire the vehicles, chat with participants, and learn more about the cause supported by our association.<\/p>\n

The elegance contest turned the ch\u00e2teau\u2019s paths into a real runway: the cars, carefully prepared, paraded before admiring eyes. Gleaming bodies, refined details, timeless lines\u2026 this moment celebrated automotive elegance in all its splendor. A joyful and moving parade, where the connection between children and drivers added a beautiful touch of humanity.<\/p>\n

Among the crews, some had come with vehicles rich in history. Such was the case of Michel G., who arrived with his 2 CV<\/em> and a heartfelt motivation:<\/p>\n

\u201cBringing joy to these children who are fighting, seeing their smiles when they get into the 2 CV \u2014 that\u2019s the very essence of what I\u2019m here for.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Smiles continued around an open-air lunch in a festive, convivial atmosphere: food trucks, a guinguette, colorful tablecloths, music, and laughter\u2026 The ch\u00e2teau was transformed into a true place of life, celebration, and generosity.<\/p>\n

A Beautiful Getaway Through Brittany in Support of Research<\/h3>\n

In the early afternoon, the cars set off again for a rally through the region, winding between land and sea. The Breton landscapes rolled by, passers-by waved to the convoy, and the children experienced a magical interlude \u2014 far from the daily reality of illness.<\/p>\n

Back at the ch\u00e2teau, the day ended with the awards ceremony and, above all, the presentation of a check for \u20ac132,062<\/strong> to Imagine for Margo<\/em> \u2014 a symbol of sincere, collective commitment to advancing research on childhood and adolescent cancers.<\/p>\n

Patricia Blanc, President of Imagine for Margo<\/em><\/a>, expressed heartfelt gratitude:<\/p>\n
