Passion to Lead Society equips educators and leaders with heart-centered literacy tools that ripple out into classrooms, families, and communities. When know that when we empower one caregiver, we impact every child they reach — and the communities those children grow up in.

About Passion to Lead Society

Passion to Lead Society is a Canadian registered charity dedicated to empowering educators and young leaders with the tools they need for well-being, resilience, and heart-centered leadership. Since 2007, we’ve reached more than 6,000 youth in 14 countries, and our next goal is to train 100 teachers and impact over 2,000 children annually across Canada and through our global partners.Through programs like the BWell Teacher Training, we provide educators with simple, practical resources to bring emotional regulation, emotional literacy, and leadership development into primary classrooms. These tools create healthier learning environments where children feel safe, confident, and connected.
We believe that when educators are supported, their impact ripples outward—into classrooms, families, and communities—creating the systemic change needed for a more compassionate and resilient world.
Founded by Loretta Cella, a long-time educator and leadership consultant, Passion to Lead brings together expertise in human development and community building to create programs that make lasting change where it matters most: with our children and those who guide them.

BWell Teacher Training

On September 13th, we’re bringing together teachers for a half-day BWell Training session. Each teacher learns practical tools in mindfulness, heart science, and emotional regulation — and brings those practices back to their classrooms.

Ways You Can Support the BWell Training

Every contribution helps us bring this work to more classrooms and children. Whether you sponsor one teacher or donate what you can, your support creates a ripple of impact that reaches far beyond the training room.

  • Donate What You Can - Every contribution helps — no amount is too small to make an impact.

  • Sponsor a Teacher - A $297 donation covers one teacher’s training, reaching 20+ kids and their families with powerful tools for well-being.

  • Submit a Nomination Here - Know a teacher who would love to take this training but might be on limited resources or perhaps you know they work so hard in their classroom and you want to gift them with a nomination for free training? We are accepting nominations for teachers across Canada.

  • Spread the Word - Know a teacher who would love this? Share the program details and help bring BWell to their classroom.
