You Can Help Kids Live Better, Too

Here’s How You Can Be Part Of Craigwood’s Work For Better Mental Health In Families!

Children’s mental health has been identified as one of the most severely and chronically underfunded sectors of Ontario’s social framework. Those receiving Child and Youth Mental Health service are not required to pay fees for therapeutic services, but provincial funding models have fallen short of operating costs and overhead.

Financial donations help us deliver service and make a lasting change in the lives of some of Ontario’s most vulnerable young people.

We are a registered charitable organization, incorporated as a Children’s Mental Health Centre in 1983. Your donations over $10.00 are eligible for a tax-deductible receipt. (Reg #106991219RR0001)

Cash donations allow us to meet youth and family treatment needs and reduce wait times. To make a donation to help us, keep families together, provide life changing and at times life saving treatment and support services please contact us at: (519) 432-2623 or e-mail:donate@craigwood.on.ca

If you are not able to make a financial donation please consider a donation of goods.  Many of our youth come to us with nothing and have little to return to when they leave our care. You can help with your donation of youth clothing (males and females), household start-up items and homemaking supplies, DVD movies, sports equipment, duffel bags or luggage, groceries, bedding, games and personal items.
