[6] Since its opening in 1977,[7] Chez Doris had struggled to retain its daily upkeep, especially after facing large renovation and maintenance costs in 2016.

[8] However, following a $1 million donation in 2018 from retired Montreal businessman Andrew Harper, Chez Doris is not only able to sustain regular finances, but also expand its services.

[8] Chez Doris is located at 1430 Chomedey Street[9] and offers services to upwards of 80 women per day.
