Did you know as many as 1.2 million Canadian youth are struggling with mental illness? Even more heartbreaking, 4 out of 5 of these young people aren't receiving the care they need. These statistics hit home for me because I have seen the impact that mental health challenges can have on families and communities I deeply care about.
I am proud to participate with my family in RBC Race for the Kids, raising money for the Family Navigation Project at Sunnybrook, an innovative program that connects young people struggling with mental illness and addiction to the help they desperately need. The Family Navigation Project is 100% funded by donations from caring people like you.
Your donation through my fundraising page helps ensure that young people and their families find the mental health care services they need. I believe we all benefit when we help young people. When you make a donation through RBC Race for the Kids, you’re supporting a life-changing program that allows youth in our community to get help for mental illness so they can reach their potential.Thank you so much for your support of the Family Navigation Project and RBC Race for the Kids.
Thanks,
Faria
