GenWell

about

GenWell Foundation is a registered Canadian charity and has been Canada’s Human Connection Movement since 2016. Our mission is to create a happier and healthier world by educating, empowering, and catalyzing Canadians about the importance of face-to-face social connection as a proactive step we can all take for our health, happiness, longevity and the betterment of society.

We achieve this on a population level through our website, daily social media presence, media outreach, and six annual catalytic campaigns designed to encourage Canadians to reach out and get connected face-to-face for their own health or the health of others. These campaigns are strategically timed throughout the year, targeting key moments, specific population segments or occasions, which ensures that everyone in Canada can benefit from the reminder, excuse, and permission to reach out and get connected.

At the grassroots level, we deliver interactive and engaging social health programs in workplaces, schools, community groups, municipalities, and senior-focused organizations. These programs raise awareness about the growing challenges of social isolation, disconnection, and loneliness—and their profound effects on both individual and societal well-being.

Through shared learning and reflection, participants are inspired to recognize that we are all susceptible to feelings of disconnection at times—and that we each have a role to play in building a more connected Canada. We conclude by highlighting the power of human connection as a proactive step we can all take to enhance health and happiness, not only for ourselves but also for those around us.

Your donation fuels every aspect of our movement—from delivering workshops in classrooms and equity-deserving communities, to running national awareness campaigns that reach all 41 million Canadians. Your support also helps power our population-level initiatives, including campaigns recently recognized by the World Health Organization, all aimed at helping Canadians build healthier social health habits and routines.

Thank you for believing in our mission. We couldn't do this work without the generosity of individuals, businesses, and foundations who understand the importance of swimming upstream—taking a preventative approach to the growing crisis of disconnection, rather than continuing to manage the downstream symptoms our systems have struggled with for decades.
