Run for Change was founded by a local runner named Benji Chu in 2009 and is aimed at introducing low-income, shelter, recovery and homeless people living in Vancouver’s Downtown East side to a healthier active lifestyle through running. Run for Change works in partnership with a number of community organizations to make this happen, including Mission Possible, the Carnegie Community Centre and First United Church.

Mental Health
A timely message showed up in my inbox as part of an e-newsletter from the Canadian Dental Hygienists Association today encouraging paying attention to mental health.
After all the talk this weekend about mental health (thanks Cathryn and Crystal!) I thought I'd pass it along.
