Get ready...the Insurance Brokers Association of Nova Scotia (IBANS) introduces #BrokersCare!

What is #BrokersCare?

Created by IBAS (Saskatchewan) this kid-focused community campaign has raised an incredible $300,000 for various charitable organizations since its launch in 2021. Due to its success it has also been adopted by other provincial broker associations and is on its way to becoming a recognized "brand" associated with the broker profession in other western provinces. The idea behind the  program was that it would provide a way to bring the insurance industry together, support our communities and drive awareness of the broker profession. 

The #BrokersCare program focuses it's giving on charities and grassroots projects that:

• Champion youth mental health initiatives
• Enhance equitable access to learning and development for children
• Provide comfort and care to sick kids
• Combat food insecurity for at-risk youth
• Empower local communities to thrive

What's our Charity?

IBANS charity of choice will be the IWK Health Foundation.

IWK Health is dedicated to providing quality care to women, children, youth, and families in the Maritime provinces and beyond. Services are delivered through Children's Health programs, Mental Health and Addictions programs, and Women's and Newborn Health.

How Do We Raise Funds?

The main way funds are raised is through a t-shirt campaign and 100% of the funds from the sales goes to charity. Special thanks to this programs presenting sponsor Wawanesa, who generously supplies all of the shirts in each province for this campaign! We also hope to expand on ways for members and the insurance community and others to get involved through direct giving and events.

How Can You Get Involved?

Buy a #BrokersCare t-shirt for $39.99 (plus HST) and wear it proudly!  By wearing the shirt while out in the community, it highlights the brand and increases awareness which we hope will drive support for this campaign.

All of the shirts are produced by Canadian company, Prairie Proud, and are available in XS - 4XL (unisex sizing chart). Made of an ultra-soft cotton blend for minimal shrinkage (follow washing instructions).
