Celebrating 20 years!

Food Allergy Canada has created impact for two decades. The organization was formed in 2001 with the merging of two groups: The Anaphylaxis Network of Canada and the Anaphylaxis Foundation of Canada. From 2001-2015, we operated under the name Anaphylaxis Canada. In 2015, we changed our name to Food Allergy Canada with a renewed focus on helping Canadians with food allergy live confidently.

Two decades of creating change
