CCFC Partners

Thank you to our corporate sponsors and partners! Together, we have raised more than $61 million for inflammatory bowel disease research.

The vital inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) research and education resources that CCFC provides would not be possible without the ongoing support of these companies and organizations. Their dedication, enthusiasm, energy and financial resources bring hope to thousands of Canadians living with IBD. They partner with us because they share our mission to find the cure!

Our growing roster of corporate sponsors extends to some of Canada’s leading companies. They benefit from their partnership with the Foundation through increased public awareness of their product or service, recognition as a good corporate citizen, and the opportunity to engage their employees in an important cause.

DID YOU KNOW?

Anyone regardless of age, sex or race can get IBD. IBD is a chronic and debilitating disease affecting over 200,000 Canadian men, women and children. Just over half this number have Crohn’s disease and the rest have ulcerative colitis.

It affects your customers, employees, and community.

Most people are diagnosed before the age of 30.

Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis affect close to 1 percent of the population.

In your community, about 1 in 100 people will have Crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis.

Although IBD is found throughout the world, it appears to be more common in North America and northern Europe.

Canada has one of the highest incidence rates of IBD in the world.

Gastrointestinal illnesses are one of the leading causes of employee absenteeism in Canada.

Studies show that the health of IBD patients indirectly costs the Canadian economy more than $100 million each year.

We invite companies who are interested in becoming a sponsor of the CCFC to please contact us at ccfc@ccfc.ca or (416) 920-5035.
