Staples Canada's ongoing partnership with MAP, Canada's largest health equity research center, is commemorated with the launch of its new 'Close the Gap' campaign. Making the fourth year of Staples Canada's and MAP's Even the Odds Partnership, the campaign aims to address critical health disparities in Canada.
By raising funds and awareness, Staples and MAP work to eliminate barriers to care, offering support in underserved communities, and combatting childhood health inequities. Through initiatives like APPLE Schools, OurCare, and the innovative Our Healthbox program, this partnership has made significant strides in creating lasting impacts nationwide.
“This is an important milestone for our fundraising efforts in support of MAP and we’re immensely proud of the contributions the Even the Odds partnership has made in promoting health equity in communities throughout Canada,” said Rachel Huckle, CEO, Staples Canada. “We look forward to continuing to drive the momentum of awareness of Even the Odds through our Close the Gap campaign and provide vital funding to programs we value deeply."
