Creating Positive Change
Mental health struggles are at an all-time high in Canada. Rising costs, lingering stigma, and a lack of access to support have left too many people suffering in silence. Today, 1 in 4 Canadians report mental health concerns, and in Ontario, youth emergency room visits for mental health and addiction have jumped 135%. Despite this, 75% of young people don’t ask for help when they need it.
Together, we can create real change. Through the power of music and storytelling, the Awesome Music Project is increasing awareness, breaking down barriers, reducing stigma, and providing innovative programs to support mental health for people of all ages. Your donation helps bring these life-changing science-backed programs to more communities, fostering resilience, connection, and hope.
