Montreal, February 17, 2015 – Registrations for the Quit to Win! Challenge are in full swing.

On top of increasing their likelihood of success by registering for the Challenge, participants stand a chance of winning one of the numerous prizes, including one of 2 trips to the sunshine destinations of Riviera Maya and Punta Cana, courtesy of Transat Holidays and Grand Palladium Hotels & Resorts!
The Challenge also offers participants access to various free tools, including the SOS Challenge mobile app, which invites participants to create their network of supporters and to call on them at difficult moments. The application, which also includes a savings calculator, is available on the Apple App Store and the Google Play Store. For even more motivation, participants can also join the 15,000 fans who offer each other help and support on the Challenge Facebook page.
With its proven method, the Quit to Win! Challenge is one of the tobacco cessation interventions that reaches the greatest number of adult smokers in Quebec. On average, 2 out of 3 participants succeed in not smoking during the 6 weeks of the Challenge… An excellent rate of success!
