My Story…
This year I am raising money for Laing House! Laing House is a non-profit that is dedicated to empowering young people living with mental illness by providing well-rounded support in young people's wellness plans, which leads to better outcomes. Laing House offers quality, non-clinical, people-centred mental health support for youth ages 16-29.
I run to help maintain my own mental health! Participating in the Bluenose Half Marathon not only gives me the opportunity to focus on myself and my own mental health, but also allows me to help the youth in the community living with mental health challenges.
Thank you for helping me donate to an amazing local cause!
Description
Join Laing House Stigma Stompers and show your support for youth living with mental illness. The journey to mental health is not one that should be made alone. Laing House is committed to ensuring a place of acceptance, hope and support is open to the 1 in 5 adolescents living with mental illness. Living with mental illness is not a choice; nor is living in silence and isolation. You can make a difference in the life of a youth alone and struggle with mental illness. You may know someone that is struggling with mental illness. Maybe it's a friend, a son or daughter, maybe it is you. YOU can help young people see and live a bright future by supporting Laing House. You dont have to be an amazing runner--you just need to giv'er. Join the team and support Laing House.
