This Holiday Season: Looking Back with Gratitude, Looking Forward with Hope
As 2025 comes to a close, we’re taking a moment to reflect on what we’ve accomplished together – and on the people who made it possible.
This year was not without its challenges. Amid economic uncertainty and a shifting global landscape, Canadians dug deep, guided by a strong sense of civic duty and pride in caring for one another. Through workplaces, donors, volunteers, and supporters across the country, generosity showed up in powerful ways.
Together, HealthPartners helped strengthen a national health collective, ensuring trusted health charities could continue educating, delivering vital programs and services, advancing research, and advocating for better health systems when people needed them most. As many look ahead to ringing in a new year, there is much to celebrate in what we achieved together.
Most importantly, it is a moment to recognize the people at the heart of our mission: the donors, volunteers, workplaces, and partners who make our work possible.
Thank You for Making 2025 a Year of Growth
We were proud to welcome three new member charities into our health collective this year. With 20 trusted health charities now working together through HealthPartners, we’re addressing health conditions that touch nearly every family at some point in their lives.
Because of your generosity:
- 23 million interactions across our member charities helped Canadians learn, cope, and access care – 23 million moments of awareness, guidance, and support
- 100,000+ people received help through dedicated health information lines
- 2,219 children and families found respite and connection through camps and retreats
- 10,000+ mobility aid and cancer support requests were funded, helping people maintain independence and quality of life
Our Health Collective has seen a sharp rise in service needs since 2019, and your support is helping ensure people don’t face health challenges alone. None of this would have been possible without the support of thousands of people across Canada.
To recognize the generosity behind these achievements, we’re honoured to share a special message from our volunteers – from people with lived experience to our Board of Directors – to say thank you.
This Holiday Season, The Gifts you Choose to Give Matters
Across the country, people give for many reasons: to honour a loved one, to support a cause that has shaped their life, or simply to help someone they may never meet. As a meaningful hostess gift, for the practical tax benefits, or perhaps simply to end the year feeling great. No matter the motivation, every gift to HealthPartners becomes part of something larger.
The holidays are a time for connection, compassion, and generosity. They are also a moment when your support can make a meaningful difference.
If you’re able, we invite you to consider making a holiday gift today.
Thank you for your generosity, your trust, and your belief in what we can accomplish together. From all of us at HealthPartners, warm wishes for a healthy, hopeful holiday season.
