We are delighted to announce that The Airdrie Health Foundation (AHF) is the recipient of our 2025 Trailblazer Fund. The Health Foundation is doing incredible work in our community and this very worthwhile organization is seeking help telling their story through an effective website that furthers their essential mandate, programs and awareness.

They are a charitable foundation created to raise funds for the Airdrie Community Health Centre, Urgent Care, Mental Health and other high priority health care needs. Their mandate is to raise funds for health and wellness priorities, such as services, equipment and education for Airdrie and the surrounding community.

In today’s digital world, a website serves as the face of any organization, particularly for non-profits like the Airdrie Health Foundation. While the current website has been a valuable tool, to meet the growing needs of the foundation and continue to effectively supports its mission, a new website is a great addition.

Switchback Creative can help the foundation with several key factors to enhance their impact for Airdrie residents with a new website. We can help to enhance user experience – a user-friendly, mobile-responsive website ensures donors, volunteers, and visitors can easily find information, contribute, and engage with the foundation.

Reflecting growth and impact – a refreshed design will showcase the foundation’s expanding programs, advocacy, achievements, and vision – strengthening its reputation and reach.

Boosting fundraising efforts – streamlined information about the donation processes can significantly increase support for healthcare initiatives. Building credibility with a professional, modern website fosters trust and confidence among donors, partners, and the community.

Strengthening community connection – a vibrant online hub can share resources, celebrate healthcare success stories, and inspire greater local involvement.

“The Airdrie Health Foundation makes the world a better place in so many ways. We started making a difference in January 2011 when a group of community members ca

me together to form a grassroots group advocating for better health care for our community! Since then, the AHF became a registered charity in 2013 and has raised funds to enhance healthcare for Airdrie and area. Funds raised support much needed equipment, programs and education that would not otherwise be funded.” – Michelle Bates, Foundation Executive Director

“Unlike other causes, health care affects everyone. Whether you are a new parent needing to use the public health clinic, or homecare, or mental health resources or urgent care we support every resident of Airdrie and area.” – Michelle explained in their Trailblazer pitch.

The AHF also works with local and provincial stakeholders to advocate for better health care for our residents. One of their greatest accomplishments was successfully advocating to have the Airdrie Urgent Care open 24/7, which opened on April 3, 2017!

By donating our work to the Airdrie Health Foundation we are investing in their vision, so that the foundation can amplify its impact and better serve and advocate for Airdrie’s healthcare needs.
