Dear Friends and Family,
I'm excited to be participating again in the Ride for Mental Health this year to support the cause of mental health awareness and treatment. Mental health issues affect millions of people in the US, and I believe that we can make a difference by coming together and supporting this cause.
I'm dedicating this ride to the members of my family who are struggling with mental health. Your donations will help fund research, advocacy, and treatment programs at McLean Hospital, a Harvard-affiliated psychiatric hospital.
Every little bit counts, and your contribution can make a significant impact. Mental health is still considered a stigma and is not taken seriously enough by the greater medical community. We need to ride away the stigma! Please consider making a donation to support this important cause. Thank you for your support!
The Ride for Mental Health 2023
The Ride for Mental Health is one of the first rides in the country to benefit mental health. The proceeds raised will be donated to McLean Hospital, a Harvard Medical School affiliate, for the education, research, and treatment of mental illness including anxiety, borderline personality disorder, depression, eating disorders and substance abuse. Our mission is to raise funds for McLean so that we can help accelerate the progress being made to help others who suffer from mental illness.
We also hope to end the stigma surrounding mental illness through education and awareness. The promotion of this ride is a start. Many if not most of us are touched by close friends and relatives who have suffered from one type or another of mental illness.
