Our heartfelt thanks to the organizers and participants of the 2nd Annual Robbie Swenson Memorial Golf Tournament. What an incredible display of community spirit in honour of someone lost far too soon.

We are deeply grateful to have been invited to take part in this special event, and to everyone who chose to honour Robbie’s memory by supporting our cause. Through your generosity, over $7,000 was raised to fund our mental health programs for individuals facing financial barriers to care.

This community truly is one of a kind. Your compassion and commitment ensure that no one is denied the help they need because of cost—and that together, we can continue to make mental health support accessible to all.

From all of us at Step Forward Health Society, thank you for standing with us and for keeping hope alive in our community.

OnWorld Mental Health Day, Every Step Forward Matters

Today, we pause to reflect on how far we’ve come after hardship, and how far many in our community still have to go.

No one should have to face mental health struggles alone. Yet, for too many, the support they need remains out of reach. Because of the additional hurdles they face, those in the lowest income brackets are 3–4 times more likely to experience mental illness and often the least able to afford care.

At Step Forward Health Society, we’re changing that. With your help, we make counselling and community-based mental health programs accessible to those who need them most, ensuring cost is never a barrier to healing.

Your donation helps provide:

💚 Subsidized counselling sessions for individuals, couples, and families in crisis
🤝 Peer support groups led by professionals
🌱 Community programs that reduce stigma and build connection

This World Mental Health Day, join us in making mental health care accessible for everyone.

Together, we can remind every person that their story matters — and that hope is within reach, one step at a time.
