Changemaker Health and Wellbeing
About This Series
GreenShield and Future of Good are taking a deeper look at the health and wellbeing of those on the front lines of care. Changemakers say they are burned out, stressed and under-resourced. We’re looking to find solutions to help those who care, care for themselves. As a non-profit health and benefits company, GreenShield is committed to investing $75 million towards social impact initiatives with an aim to impact 1 million people by 2025. These stories and discussions should be highlighted, celebrated, shared and amplified across sectors to spark awareness, knowledge, inspire change, and empower changemakers to address health and wellbeing disparities in Canada.
