The Shoppers LOVE. YOU. Run for Women will once again be virtual this July!
Between July 4th and July 11th, you are invited to run or walk the route of your choice and live stream the event on July 11th to hear inspiring stories from individuals across the country. Every step you take and every dollar you raise will go a long way to supporting women’s mental health programs at St. Joseph’s Healthcare Hamilton.
Last year, 950 walkers and runners took part in a 5k or 10k route of their choice while raising funds to support women’s mental health and addiction programs and services at St. Joe’s.
Thanks to the efforts of so many fundraisers and participants, $101,013 was raised to help our Women’s Health Concerns Clinic, Youth Wellness Centre, Seniors Mental Health Clinic and Womankind Addiction Services teams to continue caring for the mental health of women of all ages across our region.
To register for this year’s run or walk, please visit www.runforwomen.ca.
If you have any questions, please contact Janine@stjoesfoundation.ca.

Women are disproportionately 'bearing the brunt' of coronavirus crisis with 7 out of 10 Canadian women experiencing more anxiety, depression, fatigue and isolation because of the increase in unpaid care work they are expected to perform during the COVID-19 pandemic.
