Travelbrands raised $10,000 in support of SickKids Foundation through its annual SickKids Walk, bringing together over 55 participants in Toronto and Montreal for a shared cause. With all funds raised being matched, the initiative will deliver a total impact of $20,000 for SickKids.
Held simultaneously in both cities on Aug. 25, the walk brought the travelbrands community together to raise funds and show its continued support for SickKids and the children and families who rely on its care.
“Seeing our teams and travel community come together for SickKids is incredibly meaningful,” said Nathalie Tanious, President & CEO of H.I.S. Canada Travel Inc., parent company of travelbrands. “Every person who walked, donated and supported this initiative helped us reach an incredible $10,000. We are deeply grateful to our team, the trade media, and the travel advisors who participated, and are proud to continue supporting the extraordinary work of SickKids.”
Montreal team
The annual walk is part of travelbrands’ longstanding commitment to SickKids Foundation and its mission to help transform children’s health. Over the years, travelbrands has supported SickKids through a range of fundraising initiatives, helping contribute more than $3 million to the hospital.
travelbrands extends its sincere thanks to all those who helped make the 2026 SickKids Walk a success and looks forward to continuing to rally the travel community on September 9 at the annual travelbrands Golf Classic behind a cause that has become an important part of the company’s legacy.
