#GiveHope on Thank You Thursday

Thank You Thursday!

GivingTuesday is a global day of giving that happens each year after Black Friday and Cyber Monday. It’s a time when we all come together to celebrate giving and participate in activities that support charities and non-profits. There is no “right” way to participate as long as it supports generosity and giving. Donate, volunteer time, help a neighbour, or spread the word.

On GivingTuesday we encourage everyone to find their own ways to Do Good Stuff! It’s a simple message that works in so many ways. We can all:

• Do Good Stuff
• Share Good Stuff
• Give Good Stuff
• Teach Good Stuff

Impact of your donations

Your donations from GivingTuesday will help provide kids living with mental health challenges with activity based programming. CMHA-VF’s Super Fun Groups build self-confidence, empowerment, social and coping skills as they create friendships with kids just like them – suffering from anxiety, depression or bipolar disorder – or living with a parent with mental illness.

An anxiety disorder seriously impacts our lives, including how we feel and act.

“My son was hospitalized with Psychosis and I entered a whole new world and I found the impact on the individual, the family, the workplace. We’ve been involved with the Canadian Mental Health Association and thrilled that there is art programs available.
