This campaign is an exemplary collaboration between the nine foundations of the Vitalit\u00e9 Health Network in northern New Brunswick and UNI Financial Cooperation, a partner committed to the Northern Star initiative since its beginning. Together, they are pursuing their shared mission: to promote health in our communities and support the sustainable development of local healthcare services.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The 2025 campaign edition offers many ways for the community to get involved. Citizens can purchase symbolic mini-trees starting at $2. These mini-trees are available at several points of sale, as well as at UNI Financial Cooperation service points in participating regions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
