Help Jennifer raise money

For participating in 2019 Scotiabank Vancouver Half-Marathon & 5k

My Story…

In my last semester at UBC, a student jumped off a crane. A couple years before that, a friend of a friend jumped off the Lion’s Gate Bridge. I didn’t know what to do about these events, but I knew I wanted to do something. My work on Humans of UBC Psych was partly motivated by these deaths. After graduation, I decided to become a counsellor. Joining the Crisis Centre as Crisis Responder is one step toward that goal. Since 1969, the Crisis Centre has been a non-profit dedicated to providing help and hope to individuals, organizations, and communities. They provide immediate access to barrier-free, non-judgmental, confidential support and follow-up through our 24/7 phone lines and online services. And, they offer education and training programs that promote mental wellness and communities to assist people at risk of suicide. Today, I am training to run a half-marathon on June 23rd in support of their cause. A donation in any amount is a big help. Can I count on yours today?

Donate to help Jennifer raise money for 2019 Scotiabank Vancouver Half-Marathon & 5k’s fundraising campaign.
