My Story…
For me, supporting Lumenus is a family affair! Throughout the month of October my niece Scarlett and I will be walking (me) or running (Scarlett), me with hubby and Nigel in tow, to raise funds to support the critically needed mental health services provided by Lumenus. Our young people have suffered greatly through the past 18 months. Social isolation, family stress and heightened world-wide anxiety take its toll now and into the future. Please help me and Scarlett ensure that our young people and their families get the help they need when they need it so they can continue to look forward to a bright future. Thank you! Lydia (and Scarlett!)
Description
THANK YOU! for helping Lumenus surpass our goal of $80,000!
To date we have raised an outstanding $93,500 (from donations through this website and lumenus.ca)
This site will continue to accept donations until November 15.
Lumenus provides excellent, accessible and integrated mental health, developmental and community services where every client has the opportunity to be seen, be heard and to be well.
Our FREE, 5 Walk-In Clinics provide brief counselling service. In the aftermath of COVID-19 and with the school opening, we anticipate a spike in demand for mental health counselling services.
As many as 1 in 4 transitional aged youth suffer with a mental health disorder and many experience high physiological distress. Statistics show a marked increase in Ontario youth suicides, substance use, eating disorders and anxiety during the pandemic. Lumenus services can help them now.
KIDS CAN’T WAIT!
Your Donations will increase the number of youth we can help!
