Fundraising and purpose
The event supports the Reproductive Mental Health Program at BC Women’s Hospital. Fundraising progress shown is $1,855.94 raised toward a $30,300 goal (about 6% raised). BC Women’s Hospital operates more than 60 programs and clinics that address mental health and women’s health needs.
The event materials describe specific program areas: reproductive mental health services for pregnancy and postpartum challenges, an Endometriosis and Pelvic Pain Program, and menopause and midlife women’s health support. The materials state 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 COVID-19 pandemic, and more than 40% of women did not get needed mental health support during that time. The organization also notes a planned unit to allow mothers to be admitted with their babies. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
