Dear Friends and Family,

For the fifth year in a row, on Saturday September 14th I will be running 5K at the RBC Race for the Kids in support of youth mental health. Mental illness is a serious issue affecting over two million Canadians, and it is estimated that only one in five individuals in need of help currently gets the support they need – often because they don't know where to turn. Sunnybrook's Family Navigation Project was created to help tackle this problem by helping Canadian youth navigate the complex mental health system.

Mental health is truly an epidemic these days and those of us who have been personally and/or had loved ones affected by it understand the importance of getting issues under control ASAP. This is why programs such the Family Navigation Project are so critical and it is a cause that I am proud to support. I would greatly appreciate any support and generosity you are willing to provide.

Thank you very much in advance for your support and if you’re interested in running with me on September 14th, please join Team SNG today!

Sincerely,

Jesse
