Take the challenge!

Are you looking to mobilize your employees or work colleagues around a challenge? Would you like to carry out a meaningful activity together and set a common goal? Every step counts in supporting vulnerable populations and people with disabilities.

 

Taking on a challenge can have an incredible impact, especially when undertaken collectively. At Humanity & Inclusion Canada, we believe that every step you take to help counts, and can make a huge difference. That's why we invite you to take part in our "Every Step Counts" solidarity challenge.

Ambitious fundraising targets

Together, we can achieve ambitious goals. Set a fundraising goal of $15,000 or more, up to $100,000. We'll convert this goal into the number of kilometers to be covered during the challenge, depending on the number of participants. Every dollar raised goes directly to funding concrete projects that improve the lives of those who need it most.

“BNP Paribas recently partnered with Humanity & Inclusion Canada (HI) for the Every Step Counts Challenge. This challenge was aligned with our goal to promote accessibility, inclusivity, and empowerment of people with diverse abilities. It was also a wonderful opportunity for our teams to get together after 2 long years of pandemic around an inclusive purpose. We reached our objective ahead of time and we’re very proud of our employees that enthusiastically invested their time and effort in helping a vulnerable population. We would like to thank HI Canada for their commitment and continuous support throughout the challenge.” - BNP Paribas, Montréal
