Having worked in many different hospitals, we were struck by the widespread shortage of volunteers, but especially a total absence of young volunteers. This lack of community involvement is very concerning, particularly in a post-pandemic era, where the appeal of the healthcare field seems to have disappeared, resulting in a shortage of all healthcare workers, from patient attendants to radiology techs to various types of nurses.  <span fr-original-style="color: rgb(15, 14, 91); font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px; font-style: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: 0.25px; orphans: 2; text-align: left; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; white-space: normal; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); text-decoration-thickness: initial; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial; display: inline !important; float: none;" style="color:rgb(15, 14, 91);font-family:Helvetica;font-size:18px;font-style:normal;font-variant-ligatures:normal;font-variant-caps:normal;font-weight:400;letter-spacing:0.25px;orphans:2;text-align:left;text-indent:0px;text-transform:none;widows:2;word-spacing:0px;-webkit-text-stroke-width:0px;white-space:normal;background-color:rgb(255, 255, 255);text-decoration-thickness:initial;text-decoration-style:initial;text-decoration-color:initial;float:none;display:inline !important;box-sizing:inherit">One of the impacts we are achieving is to introduce young people to the medical field, hoping that their first interactions with patients will ignite a desire to pursue a career in healthcare. Additionally, integrating volunteering into their weekly schedule establishes a sense of engagement that will be reinforced year after year, thus creating a cohort of young adults dedicated to their community. How funds are managedTo ensure that donors' funds are exclusively used to further our purpose either directly or indirectly, we've set up a finance department with multiple layers of verification so no discrepancy goes unnoticed. Every department member receives comprehensive training to perform their specific tasks. We've also created a strict financial policy that all of our members must abide to. Any and all breaches of this policy, including misappropriation and loss of donors' funds, will result in immediate expulsion and will be reported to the relevant authorities. <hr /> With you by our side, we're convinced that we can make a true difference in the lives of cancer patients across Canada.

What we doWe are constantly working on new programs and services to offer to cancer patients. Having worked in many different hospitals, we were struck by the widespread shortage of volunteers, but especially a total absence of young volunteers. This lack of community involvement is very concerning, particularly in a post-pandemic era, where the appeal of the healthcare field seems to have disappeared, resulting in a shortage of all healthcare workers, from patient attendants to radiology techs to various types of nurses.  One of the impacts we are achieving is to introduce young people to the medical field, hoping that their first interactions with patients will ignite a desire to pursue a career in healthcare. Additionally, integrating volunteering into their weekly schedule establishes a sense of engagement that will be reinforced year after year, thus creating a cohort of young adults dedicated to their community. How funds are managedTo ensure that donors' funds are exclusively used to further our purpose either directly or indirectly, we've set up a finance department with multiple layers of verification so no discrepancy goes unnoticed. Every department member receives comprehensive training to perform their specific tasks. We've also created a strict financial policy that all of our members must abide to. Any and all breaches of this policy, including misappropriation and loss of donors' funds, will result in immediate expulsion and will be reported to the relevant authorities. <hr /> With you by our side, we're convinced that we can make a true difference in the lives of cancer patients across Canada. On behalf of the entire team of the Coda Foundation, Thank you. <hr /> <img src="https://res.cloudinary.com/hxn9dbuhd/image/upload/v1726439293/wgzzwq7eaof4huhedjn1.jpg" style="width:878px;display:block;vertical-align:top;margin:5px auto;text-align:center;max-width:100%" />
