What can you do to help?

With strong support from our staff and donors, we’ve reached 85% of our goal, with only $3 million left to raise, to build a new mental health centre at VGH. And with more help from philanthropist, Joe Segal – who generously gave $12 million to kick the project off – we’re getting even closer. Joe is challenging listeners to raise $50,000 for a healing garden at the new mental health centre at VGH and he will be matching donations up to $100,000 for the month of March.
