The medal is made of nickel-plated steel that makes it magnetic. To wear your medal, choose the side you wish to display on your clothing and place the magnet on the other side of the fabric.
This special medal pays tribute to the tremendous contributions of essential workers in all fields across Canada, as well as Canadians who are keeping people safe, healthy and connected as we face the unprecedented challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic.
The Royal Canadian Mint has proudly created a unique keepsake that you can wear, keep or give to someone to express your appreciation. We all know someone who has earned a medal.
The Royal Canadian Mint is donating 100% of the net proceeds to the Breakfast Club of Canada's COVID-19 Emergency Funding to help support Canadian children and their families that are facing food insecurity now and in the months to come.
