Pfizer Canada is taking its Paralympic pride online with a short viral film that aims to raise funds for Canada’s Paralympic team.

The film, called Believing in Yourself, was created in collaboration with Toronto-based Zig and posted on Pfizer Canada’s holistic wellness site Morethanmedication.ca. The pharmaceutical company is encouraging Canadians to show their support of Canada’s Paralympians by going online to watch and share the film. Every time the film is viewed and then forwarded to a friend or loved one, Pfizer will donate $5 to the Canadian Paralympic Team on top of its pre-existing partnership agreements.

Paralympic sledge hockey player Todd Nicholson is the focus of the viral short. Nicholson was paralyzed following a car accident in 1987, and joined Canada’s sledge hockey team in 1992. The film features him training in a gym while a narrator describing the many challenges he had to overcome in order to earn a place on Team Canada.

‘Our goal is to raise an extra $50,000 over the next few weeks as our nation celebrates the power, spirit and skill of Paralympic athletes like Todd, who is an inspiration on and off the ice,’ said Ghislain Boudreau, VP public affairs and stakeholder relations, Pfizer Canada, in a release.

Believing in Yourself can also be shared via Facebook, Twitter, Digg and other social media sites.
