Charity and fundraising
The run supports the Reproductive Mental Health Program at BC Women’s Hospital and Health Centre. Fundraising for the hospital shows $3,310.26 raised toward a goal of $30,300, which is 11% of the goal. The event materials describe program areas supported, including reproductive mental health services, an endometriosis and pelvic pain program, and menopause and midlife women’s health services. Materials also note that BC Women’s Health Foundation aims to open a mental health unit where mothers can be admitted with their babies. Staffing and program statistics referenced in the event material include that nearly one in four new mothers in BC experience postpartum depression or anxiety, almost half of women in BC saw their mental health decline during the pandemic, and more than 40% of women did not get the mental health support they needed during that time.
