The Breathe Smart! Program

What if you had learned about lung health in school?

Our Breathe Smart! Education Program helps students understand what vaping really does to their lungs. Alberta Lung reached 42 schools and more than 2,000 kids last year. Your gift will help us reach even more young people this school year with tools, facts, and learning experiences that help young people think critically and make healthier choices.

Watch Jamie's Story

To help protect young lungs from vaping

When every breath matters.

Jamie is Alberta Lung’s health coordinator — and a competitive swimmer who discovered firsthand what vaping does to the lungs. She explains the dangers, the predatory marketing practices, and how these products are designed to be ultra-addictive.

When Jamie needed support, Alberta Lung was there. And now, with your help, she’s helping make sure young Albertans don’t have to learn these lessons the hard way.

Our ask of you

Alberta Lung cannot do this without donors like you

Breathe Smart! teaches school-aged youth the importance of lung health and the real dangers of vaping. Youth learn to take leadership among their peers on vaping harms, misinformation, and predatory marketing.

Over 2,000 kids learned about lung health and the real dangers of vaping through Breathe Smart! With your support, we can reach even more students this school year.

Be the reason students aren't alone.

Please donate today so no Albertan has to face lung disease alone. Your gift carries Alberta Lung’s work — and young Albertans — forward.
