Introducing the Changemaker
Wellbeing Learning Journey

Non-profit work is driven by purpose — but too often, it runs on empty. The Changemaker Wellbeing Learning Journey is Future of Good’s member-exclusive program designed to help your team strengthen wellbeing from the inside out — together.

Built on insights from the Changemaker Wellbeing Indexthe most comprehensive study of non-profit worker wellbeing in Canada — this annual membership gives your organization access to:

  • In-depth editorial stories that dig into the realities of working on the front lines, and how leaders and teams are finding ways to foster healthier work cultures.

  • Deep-dive reports that go even further into the data uncovered in the Changemaker Wellbeing Index. The first report, Many models, more complexity: Nonprofits at the Forefront of Remote and Hybrid Work, will be released in late October 2025. These reports provide fresh analysis of Index data, offering insights into what most deeply shapes how nonprofit workers connect to their roles, their organizations, and the impact they create.

  • Two half-day, virtual events of team learning – see below for details.
  • Discussion spaces that help leaders and staff build shared language, belonging, and trust.

  • Deeply discounted tickets for the upcoming Changemaker Wellbeing Summit (spring 2026).
  • Access to every benefit of Future of Good membership.

Overview

Only 33 per cent of non-profit workers thrive, while 36 per cent report poor well-being, with 13 per cent severely struggling. Burnout affects over one-third of the workforce, particularly young, entry-level, and frontline staff. Despite exhaustion, people report high job satisfaction and commitment to impact. This session explores this paradox and asks how individuals and teams can create environments where well-being is part of everyday culture.

We’ll go beyond yoga breaks and wellness stipends, focusing on interpersonal micropractices that build resilience and trust, such as peer check-ins, boundaries around urgency, and reframing emotional labor. Using data from the Changemaker Wellbeing Index, this symposium will highlight changemakers’ lived experience, showing how small actions can transform personal and team well-being.
