Giving Back, Growing Stronger

At Pure Lab Vitamins, we know health is a journey—and it looks different for everyone. Sometimes it means bouncing back from illness. Sometimes it’s about pushing ourselves to feel stronger, more energized, and more present in our lives. And often, it's just about taking a moment to replenish our nutrient stores so we can keep showing up as our best selves.

That philosophy guides not only the products we make, but the people and organizations we support.

We’re proud to give back to causes that help others live better—whether it's access to healthcare in underserved areas, helping people with disabilities experience the joy of skiing, or encouraging folks of all ages to get outside and learn to mountain bike.

These are the stories that inspire us, and we’re honoured to be part of them.

Here are just a few of the incredible organizations we’ve had the privilege to support.

Cells for Noah: Supporting Our Retail Partner TNS Cobourg and the Lapp Family

Pure Lab Vitamins is proud to support Suzee Lapp, owner of TNS Health Foods, by sponsoring the “Cells for Noah” golf tournament in support of her son. This special event raises funds to help Noah access life-changing stem cell therapy. Held annually at Shelter Valley Pines Golf Club, the tournament brings the community together for a meaningful day of golf and giving. Supporting Noah’s journey reflects our deep commitment to the people and families behind the natural health community.

Ski Hawks Ottawa: Making the Slopes Inclusive

We believe everyone deserves the chance to feel the freedom, excitement, and joy that comes with moving their body—especially in nature. That’s why we’re proud to support Ski Hawks Ottawa, a volunteer-led program that makes downhill skiing accessible to visually impaired and blind skiers.

Every winter, this incredible group hits the slopes at Camp Fortune, where skiers aged 8 to 80+ are matched with trained guides for fun, confidence-building evenings on the hill. With a focus on inclusion and empowerment, Ski Hawks has been creating unforgettable winter experiences for more than 45 years.

Because movement is for everyone—and adventure should never be off-limits.

Dr. Jeff & Michelle Balon: Bringing Care Where It’s Needed Most

Twice a year, Dr. Jeff Balon and Michelle Balon lead life-changing medical missions to some of the most underserved communities in the Dominican Republic. These trips focus not only on providing essential medical care, but also on addressing a deeper, ongoing crisis: malnutrition and food insecurity. In the areas they serve, limited access to nutritious food leads to widespread health issues—many of which are preventable with the right support. Their work brings hope, healing, and practical solutions to communities that need it most, and are proud to have stood behind their mission for years.

Bakker’s Trailblazers: Building Confidence On and Off the Bike

Led by Osmond Bakker, all of the programs associated with Bakkers Trailblazers are more than just cycling programs— they are a movement built on athletic pursuit, sportsmanship, and personal growth. From youth development camps and summer programs to Twilight racing and women-focused clinics, Trailblazers creates an inclusive, empowering space where riders of all levels can grow—both as athletes and as individuals. Through the shared experience of cycling, young people learn teamwork, resilience, and self-confidence, all while having a whole lot of fun. We’re proud to support a program that helps riders thrive on the trails and in life.

Supporting Team Canada on the Road to Paris

At Pure Lab Vitamins, we’re proud to stand behind excellence, determination, and the power of sport to inspire. That’s why we were honoured to sponsor the Men’s and Women’s Wheelchair Basketball Teams as they trained for the Paris Paralympics. These incredible athletes represent the very best of what it means to compete for Canada—strength, resilience, and heart. We're cheering them on every step of the way.
