Support Distress Centres of Greater Toronto - Donate for Mental Health

Thank you for your continued support of our fourth annual Walk to End Suicide, taking place on Saturday, September 6, 2025. Your commitment to this initiative plays a vital role in ensuring that we can continue delivering our free, life-saving mental health services to individuals across the Greater Toronto Area.

Since launching the walk in 2022, we have been deeply moved by the outpouring of support from our community. Together, we are not only raising critical funds, but also fostering greater awareness, reducing stigma, and amplifying the importance of accessible mental health care.

This year’s walk continues to align with World Suicide Prevention Day (Wednesday, September 10)—a global call to action to prevent suicide and promote mental wellness. While the event itself is just one day, its impact is lasting and far-reaching, echoing in the lives of those we serve every single day.

We are sincerely grateful for your dedication to this cause. Your support truly makes a difference.

Robert Ridge
Executive Director
