⏰ Today is the last day to support Journey for Care 2026! 💛

Over the past month, participants across Canada have been walking, running, cycling, and taking on personal challenges to help bring healthcare closer to communities in sub-Saharan Africa.

For many people, accessing healthcare means walking 5–10 km—or more—often while sick or in extreme heat. Every step taken during Journey for Care represents a commitment to changing that reality.

There's still time to make a difference by supporting a participant, a team, or the campaign itself.

✨💛 Celebrating Our Volunteers 💛✨

This National Volunteer Week, we extend our deepest thanks to the incredible individuals who power CACHA’s global health work.

For 25 years, our volunteers have been at the heart of everything we do. From delivering care on medical missions to supporting long-term community health projects, these accomplishments would not be possible without your dedication. You give not only your time, but often your own resources and vacation days—showing up with compassion, expertise, and an unwavering commitment to improving lives.

Because of you, hundreds of thousands of patients have received care, communities have been strengthened, and hope has reached places in rural Africa where it’s needed most.

To every CACHA volunteer: thank you. Your generosity, sacrifice, and passion continue to make a lasting impact. 💛
