My Story…

On October 20, 2024 I will be running the Toronto Waterfront Half Marathon to support people living with serious mental illness, a cause that is deeply personal to my family.

I am writing to ask you to consider making a charitable donation to Eli’s Place, a residential treatment centre for young adults suffering from serious mental illness.

Thank you in advance for your support.

Description

For the 160,000 young adults in Ontario grappling with serious mental illness, access to effective treatment is grossly inadequate. The cost in lives lived with debilitating challenges or lost to early death is far too great. The vision of Eli’s Place aims to bring hope. A first-of-its-kind in Canada, Eli’s Place is modelled after a leading rural, residential long-term treatment centre with proven success. Programs that incorporate therapeutic work, specialized care and skills training will offer a path to recovery for people in this underserved age group, giving them the tools to heal and move from simply surviving to living.
