National Safety Campaigns
The Canada Safety Council runs eight safety campaigns per year. During each campaign we distribute news releases to outlets across the country to bring attention to important safety topics. Our oldest annual campaign, National Safe Driving Week, has been running since the 1950s!
Over the years, we have reached millions of Canadians with our engaging and potentially lifesaving information, but we can’t do this work alone. Partnerships with funding organizations enable us to continue this work.
Can you help? Please contact us if you would like to discuss opportunities for collaboration and/or sponsorship in upcoming campaigns.
