Happy New Year! We hope the year ahead brings good health and joy to you and your loved ones.<\/p>\n\n
We\u2019re pleased to bring you an exciting announcement today. As we launch into this new year, we are thrilled to introduce our refreshed brand, including a new name \u2013 Pacific Public Health Foundation.<\/p>\n\n
Our bold new brand has been created to convey our unique role in public health philanthropy and action. Pacific Public Health Foundation is the only charity in BC actively fundraising for public health and framing public health as a cause.<\/p>\n\n
We are the same small and mighty organization doing good things for public health. But our Foundation has grown, and as the health landscape in BC changes, so too does our work. Our new name distinguishes us while simultaneously showcasing our commitment to public health in every corner of our beautiful province, and all its diversity.<\/p>\n\n
Since we formed, our Foundation has closely aligned with the BC Centre for Disease Control (BCCDC). As BC\u2019s provincial public health service, BCCDC remains as strong and committed a partner as ever and critical to our work. Over the past 10 years, we have also built partnerships across all areas of public health, ensuring that we continue to make a difference in communities where, how, and when they need it most.<\/p>\n\n
By collaborating with the BCCDC and all of our partners, we can continue to positively influence population health outcomes by advancing programs and projects grounded in today\u2019s priorities that will have a long-lasting impact.<\/p>\n\n\n
