About Caregivers in Canada 8.1 MILLION CANADIANS provide unpaid care for someone who is older, has a chronic condition, or lives with a disability. INFORMAL CAREGIVERS are more at risk for different physical and mental health challenges than paid caregivers. 6.1 MILLION CAREGIVERS are juggling their work and caregiving responsibilities. CAREGIVING RATES WILL GROW as families get smaller, the population ages and the resulting rate of disability increases. (opens in a new window) The Rexall Care Network We’re embarking on a mission to take care of caregivers, so they can take care of the ones they love. Rexall Care Network is the expression of our social purpose and the new identity of our Foundation. While our name and logo are changing, our promise to make a difference in communities where we operate remains resolutely and passionately intact. Our Focus We care for caregivers’ health and wellbeing by empowering them with information and community resources; by funding organizations that provide caregivers with direct support and assistance to enable them to continue taking care of the ones they love; and by funding programs in support of the children and older adults they care for, providing the caregiver with much needed respite (a break from caregiving). About the Network Since 2002, we have been helping build strong and vibrant communities by supporting numerous charitab le organizations. Over the past 17 years, we have contributed over $15 million dollars towards local communities through children’s and seniors’ programs and services across Canada. In late 2018, we undertook a review of our Care Network commitments with a goal of bringing more focus to our giving platform and maximizing our social impact. We endeavoured to identify the cause that speaks to Rexall as an organization and reflects what is important to our employees and our customers - Caregiving is this cause. Enhanced access for Caregivers now available on the Be Well™ app. Easily add, view and refill their prescriptions.
