Mental Health Move-A-Thon

May is Mental Health Month, and we’re celebrating with the Mental Health Move-A-Thon, our fun and friendly community fundraising and awareness event to support local mental health!

Whether you walk, run, jog, swim, roll, or move in any way that makes you happy, every step helps make a difference. Feel free to choose any type of movement that works for you, and remember: it’s not about how fast or far you go, but about showing up and coming together for a great cause in our local community! Some fun ideas we’ve seen in the past include taking your dog for a walk, attending a group workout class, going on a scenic family hike, enjoying a bike ride with loved ones, or setting a daily step goal to tackle with a friend! Each step helps raise funds for mental health initiatives, so get creative and support this important cause!

What will my donation support?

Woolwich Counselling Centre is a registered charity supporting mental wellness in Woolwich Township and surrounding communities. Mental health needs are growing, and people of all ages are feeling the impact. We’re focused on bringing programming and services close to home.

Your donation to Woolwich Counselling Centre directly supports our local community:

• Everyone should have equal access to quality professional counselling and therapy, no matter their financial situation. We make counselling affordable and accessible to local residents with fees that are calculated on a sliding scale according to family income and size. The first session is FREE to any resident of Woolwich and Wellesley Townships. More than 40% of sessions are partly or fully subsidized by general donations.
• We bring a range of mental health programs to schools, local businesses, and community partners, making wellness more accessible.
• We offer many no cost workshops and subsidized small group therapy sessions to the public every year.
  Thank you to our compassionate and generous donors for making all this possible!
