Pathstone Foundation, in St. Catharines won a donation of $50,000 to support its program to extend the hours of service of its walk-in clinic in iA Financial Group’s second annual Canada-wide philanthropic contest, announced in September.
Pathstone Foundation’s mission is to strengthen the quality of life for children, youth and families across Niagara who are dealing with mental health challenges.
Pathstone, which helps more than 6,200 children each year, wants to make sure that no child waits more than 30 days for therapy.
The support from iA Financial Group will help this charity extend its hours and days of service and hire permanent staff for the new walk-in clinic.
