Mental Wellness Endowment Fund

Why this Fund was created 

To strengthen and support a healthy community, the Burlington Foundation created a Mental Wellness Endowment Fund, opening with a $100,000 leadership gift to Burlington Foundation from Burlington’s own Dan Noonan of Argosy Securities. As part of our mental wellness leadership work, Burlington Foundation is thrilled to establish this fund so we can focus on mental wellness through our granting program, now and in the future.

What this Fund is for  

The purpose of the Mental Wellness Endowment Fund is to improve mental health and wellness in our communities by supporting valuable mental health programs and services. With only 1 in 3 Ontario adults getting access to much needed programs and services, and sadly, only 1 in 6 of our children and youth getting access, Burlington Foundation believes this fund will enable vitally needed support at the local level.

Who Benefits from this Fund? 

This fund will benefit mental wellness in our community.
