Business Contributions
The Health Canada Helping Communities (HC)² Campaign is part of the Government of Canada Workplace Charitable Campaign (GCWCC), which is one of the most successful charitable workplace fundraising campaigns in Canada. Every year, we help organizations deliver necessary services to thousands of vulnerable communities across Canada, and it wouldn't be possible without the support and donations from businesses!
All funds raised throughout the campaign will go to Canadian charitable organizations that serve some of the most vulnerable people in our communities, as well as work to support reconciliation with Indigenous peoples, offer hope and support to families and individuals impacted by illness, help support education initiatives and after school programming for kids, and shelter people escaping violence and war.
No donation is too big or small!
We would be extremely grateful for any donation of any type or size. Every donation adds up to help make a measurable difference in the lives of Canadians in need! We hope you will join us in our efforts to raise funds that change lives and demonstrate how much we care!

HOW SUPPORTING THE (HC)² CAMPAIGN IS GOOD FOR BUSINESS
Increased
Value
As mentioned, Gift-in-Kind donations are used as incentives, such as prizes and auction items, to help increase employee participation and to raise funds for the campaign. Promoting your products or services as something to be won adds value to your company as it creates positive associations towards your brand because people often subconsciously view something as more desirable and valuable when they perceive it to
be widely sought-after and exclusive. It also generates anticipation, desire, and excitement, which can earn you loyal customers as these powerful emotions drive consumer behaviour and influence brand perception.
This benefit of donating is specific to Gift-in-Kind donations.

The 3 benefits below pertain to all types of donations.
