Welcome to our fundraising page for Mental Health Programs at Montreal General Hospital.

Mental illness has been steadily on the rise over recent years, more so after the struggles, isolation, and health worries surrounding Covid the last couple of years. Sadly it has directly and indirectly affected all Canadians, and many of our close family and friends.

Public mental health services are often underfunded which leaves many affected waiting or left in further isolation without any proper guidance or help. It is alarming to see that Suicide is the second leading cause of death among youth and young adults between 15-34 years (1)

Furthemore, in Canada, only 1 out of 5 children receive appropriate mental health services (2)

The goal of this fundraiser is to help spread Mental Health awareness and help support our Mental Health programs at the Montreal General Hospital.

So please donate. Together we can make a difference.
