Support the health of our local community by giving high fives to our health-care heroes in B.C.
is an initiative by to spread gratitude while raising vital funds for our B.C. health care system.
Our local health-care workers have been there for us throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, and they will continue to provide world-class care throughout our lives.
In order to be there when we need them, these medical teams need to be equipped with the best tools, technology, and the latest medical knowledge and research. And you can help provide that.
You can get involved by joining the #HealthCareHighFive challenge online. Donate your chosen denomination of $5 and post a photo or video on social media of the most creative (and COVID-19 friendly) high five you can think of. Use the hashtag and spread the word by tagging five of your friends to do the same.
When you make a donation, you can submit a message to our B.C. health care heroes — the people on the front lines of our health care system, providing essential care to patients in hospitals, health care centres, and in the community — to amplify your gratitude.
