Our first partner is the Pulmonary Hypertension Association of Saskatchewan. Pulmonary Hypertension (PH) is a disease affecting the arteries of the lungs and it can strike anyone regardless of age, sex, social or ethnic background.

The passion the Association has for helping those with PH impressed us here, and we got to work creating a site that would enable the Association to reach people in Saskatchewan and distribute vital information on this disease.

In addition, the design and development of the site was largely done by our co-op work student, Kirsten.  One of her class requirements was to work on a non-commercial site, and the opportunity for her to work with a non-profit organization through OH! Cares was perfect.
