A Message from Christina Smith, CEO

September 17, 2025

I want to share some personal news with you. After 13 meaningful years as CEO of Wellspring, I will be retiring from my role on March 31, 2026.

When I joined Wellspring in 2013, I was inspired by a powerful mission: to provide compassionate, community-based support for people living with cancer. Over the past decade, together we have transformed Wellspring from a small grassroots organization into a nationally recognized network, delivering support to people and families across Canada—wherever they are on their cancer journey.

While I will be stepping down as CEO in March, I’m not saying goodbye. I love Wellspring and will continue to support it in any way I can.

Thank you for being part of this journey with us. Leading Wellspring has been one of the greatest honours of my life, and I will always hold this incredible community close to my heart.

With gratitude,

Christina Smith
CEO, Wellspring Cancer Support Foundation
