1 in 3 Canadians will suffer from a mental illness in their lifetime and as little as 1/3 will receive the mental health services they need. That means every dollar raised makes a difference in helping someone who needs help today.
By supporting the Canadian Mental Health Association you can help break the debilitating stigma associated with mental illness, encourage people to get help before problems become crisis, and empower individuals to maintain good mental health in their own lives.
When you choose to support CMHA York and South Simcoe you are contributing to your community. And we’re so grateful that you’re considering doing so with us, the Canadian Mental Health Association of York Region and South Simcoe. Together, we can create a difference within our communities throughout the region.
Every event held in support of our agency increases awareness and helps to end stigma and break the silence surrounding mental illness. Each event also has the potential to generate much-needed funds to support innovative new programs such as MOBYSS, our mobile health clinic for youth.
Studies show that regular volunteer activity can have a positive effect on mental and physical health. Volunteering with CMHA provides the opportunity to build skills, learn more about mental health and meet new people, while helping build a more caring community.
