GenWell’s website describes it as a human connection movement dedicated to fostering human connections within the wider realm of social health. Elizabeth Yeo, vice president of students with STFX, said the local university was built on a tradition of community, service, and social justice, adding organizers felt the GenWell message would resonate for both X students and Antigonish residents.
GenWell CEO Pete Bombaci will serve as the spotlight speaker for the evening. Yeo said there will also be a luncheon earlier in the day including community leaders to workshop different ways in which they can foster connection on campus and within the wider community. The evening event will feature the keynote and an informal fireside chat with a question and answer period
