Once again this year, funds raised for the Montreal edition of this Canada-wide event will be donated to the Montreal General Hospital Foundation to improve access to mental health services and resources for women and the entire community.
For every registration to the Pharmaprix Run for Women, $5 will be donated to the Montreal General Hospital Foundation.
For over a decade, the Pharmaprix Run for Women has supported mental health programs at the Montreal General Hospital (MGH) and the McGill University Health Centre (MUHC) with a focus on important initiatives of the Mental Health Mission. Through care that integrates the expertise of psychologists, psychiatrists, occupational therapists, social workers, and nurses, women and their families move from mental illness to health.
By funding the Mental Health Mission, every year you help improve the care for more than:
- 45,000 out-patient visits
- 500 in-patient admissions
- 3,000 psychiatric consults in the Emergency Department
“The Pharmaprix Run for Women is a fabulous event: a fun-filled morning that combines community and exercise and supports our collective mental health. Your participation directly impacts the quality and breadth of services offered at the MUHC. On behalf of myself and the Montreal General Hospital Foundation’s team, thank you for making a difference.” – Dr. Karine Igartua, Psychiatrist-in-Chief (MUHC)
