Development and mobilization of new partnerships
Our deep roots in Alberta have nurtured long-standing partnerships with the Alberta Student Pharmacy Association, the University of Alberta, and the University of Calgary Dermatology Interest Groups. These invaluable connections have been instrumental in recruiting volunteers since our inception. Our transition to online presentations has allowed us to expand our reach nationwide, and we’re proud to say that our team now includes dedicated volunteers from nearly every Canadian province.
Increased capacity of C.S.C.F. to deliver the Sun Safety program
Despite the challenges of the past few years, the C.S.C.F. has not only met its goal of expanding program capacity but has also surpassed it. We’ve revamped our presentation materials based on valuable feedback from teachers and volunteers, created new resources that have proven incredibly effective, and forged exciting new partnerships. And we’re always on the lookout for dedicated volunteers to join our team and help us continue making a difference.
