Five Beaver’s HIKE for Mental Health

Goal: $250.00
$135.00 donated
We chose to join a hike with HIKE for Mental Health to help stamp out the stigma of mental illness and conserve wilderness trails.
We tried to create a real-world leadership project to help address the opportunity related to our team’s Sustainable Development Goal #3, which considers the problem of good health and wants “to ensure healthy lives and promote well-being for all at all ages” (United Nations, 2015). According to a study done by researchers at Stanford University (2015) hiking is proven to have many health benefits, ranging from mental and emotional relief to physical exercise.
Would you consider making a donation, leaving a message, or sharing this page? To help us to raise awareness and raise funds to help maintain wilderness trails and alleviate the suffering from mental illness.
Thank you.
