Wildfire season is just getting started. Are you taking steps to protect your lung health?
To help our coast-to-coast community prepare, the Lung Health Foundation has created this simple preparation checklist. It will be of special interest to people who live near typical fire zones – but remember, the effects of wildfire smoke can often travel thousands of kilometers away.
Wishing everyone in the 2SLGBTQ+ community a happy, healthy Pride Month
This year marks the first anniversary of the Brief Conversations Toolkit, a valuable resource developed in collaboration with Ontario Public Health Units and the Lung Health Foundation. Designed to address the youth vaping epidemic in Canada, the toolkit aids to support individuals who work with or care about youth – such as educators, school staff, coaches, youth workers, and parents. The toolkit strives to make room for engagement in meaningful, impactful conversations about quitting vaping while breaking things down into bite-sized lessons.
Protect your loved ones, gain peace of mind, and support a healthier future for Canadians living with lung disease.
Having a Will is about more than distributing assets—it’s about making a lasting impact. During Leave a Legacy Month, we invite you to think beyond today and consider how your legacy can help shape a healthier tomorrow for all Canadians.

Pembrolizumab (Keytruda) is one step closer to being funded via Canada’s various provincial drug plans for the treatment of adults with operable stage II, IIIA, or IIIB (T3 to 4N2) non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) to be used with chemotherapy before surgery to shrink the cancer and then used on its own after surgery to help keep the cancer from coming back, if certain conditions are met.
May is World Asthma Awareness Month, and the Lung Health Foundation is here to help guide the 4.6 million Canadians who live with this chronic condition. Better breathing starts with better control.
Everyone Deserves to Breathe Easy. We need to speak up so Canadians across the country can get the help they need close to home. Thanks to relentless advocacy, we acknowledged a landmark $32.5 billion settlement against tobacco companies — an important step in acknowledging decades of harm. But now, the real work begins.
Lung health has never been more urgent. Would you consider a gift that will help us protect it?
