Break the Silence on Mental Health!

Last Sunday (May 1st), thousands of co-workers, friends and family stepped forward as one community for one cause – kids – and raised close to 2M (pledges and contributions were still being tallied at the time of this post). Beginning at the Country Club Mall, Nanaimo's  "Walk So Kids Can Talk" participants enthusiastically completed the 5km walk to help kids. 

As a sponsor of Walk So Kids Can Talk, Woodgrove Pines Clinic's Dr. Stacey Scott, staff and friends participated in Nanaimo's walk, helping to raise money and awareness in doing their part to help make a difference in the lives of kids across Canada. It was a beautiful day that ended with good results and lots of fun. Dr. Scott thanks everyone who made pledges on her behalf!

For more than 20 years the Kids Help Phone has been there for kids. Their mission is to improve the well-being of children and youth in Canada by providing them anonymous and confidential professional counselling, referrals, and information through technologically-based communications media.

We'd like to remind everyone that Kids Help Phone’s Walk website accepts donations year-round. It's not too late to collect outstanding pledges either.

Every dollar raised gives a young person hope!
