a private family foundation dedicated to advancing the well-being of canadians.
more than 60 years of philanthropy has taught us that there’s a relationship between healthy landscapes and healthy people. that’s why we champion world-class health research and innovation with the same passion that we support initiatives to protect and restore biodiversity. we take a collaborative approach to philanthropy, working alongside forward-thinking partners to advance canada and create lasting impacts. we aspire to do more than provide funding, as we enable others to find transformational ways to improve the well-being of canadians. since the foundation’s beginning, each generation of our family has taken an active role in our grant-making to spark new ideas, shepherd promising initiatives, and scale ambitious projects. with every advance, we move forward together.
