Our Philanthropic Impact
Over $187,000 Raised
In addition to Physician education and wellness, the third aim of the Canadian Physicians Financial Wellness Conference is social impact. Our conference strives to set an example of paying it forward by donating our net ticket proceeds to philanthropic causes supporting healthcare and financial literacy.

This year, we are supporting Scott Mission’s Health Clinic, which provides accessible, trauma-informed healthcare to individuals and families facing barriers to consistent primary care in Toronto. Located within Scott Mission’s shelter and community services hub at 346 Spadina Avenue, the clinic offers primary and nursing care, mental health support, care coordination, specialist referrals, and connections to essential community services. Recently expanded into a larger, fully accessible space, the clinic helps ensure that people experiencing poverty, housing instability, food insecurity, and other barriers can receive timely, compassionate care in a familiar and trusted setting.

In 2025, we supported Sunnybrook Foundation and family medicine programs to connect unattached patients to family doctors as well as research stipends for Black and Indigenous students.
Using our conference proceeds, we established The Equity Award, an endowment fund that aims to give back to medical students with high financial need in perpetuity.
For our inaugural conference, we donated our proceeds to Habitat for Humanity GTA in support of financial literacy programs for Habitat housing families.
