FNHC staff have been attending Teddy Bear Fairs throughout the province this month. Many Nations host these events for children and families in different ways, like offering health information and assessments, sharing more about supportive resources, and celebrating as a community.

Big Dreams, Big Smiles: Zach Whitecloud Makes Special Visit to Treaty 7

Weekend of Connection Through Sport

On March 13 & 14th students from three First Nations communities traveled to Calgary to take part in a unique curling experience. Through a floor curling bonspiel at WinSport, they learned the game, competed together, and built new connections all while representing their schools and communities with pride.

Impact Grows When We Collaborate

Healthy Horizons made a generous investment to ensure young people have access to sport and proper equipment. Sport Central continues to steward those resources and place gear directly into the hands of kids who need it most. We helped bridge that connection in the community so everyone involved could be recognized and celebrated.
