The first annual Flora’s Walk in Kitchener will be taking place on Saturday May 3rd 2025 at George Lippert Park!
This May, the charity Healthy Start, Healthy Future (816534291RR0001), is holding the fourth annual Flora’s Walk for Perinatal Mental Health. Volunteers are planning walks across Canada, which raise funds for crucial postpartum services for new parents and their families.
The walk is lovingly named after Flora, a Canadian mom who tragically lost her life to a perinatal mental health disorder a few months after her daughter was born in 2022.
If you would like to participate, sponsor, or help organize in any way, please reach out to [email protected] with any questions.
Where does the money go?
30% of the funding goes towards supporting the good work of the Life With a Baby Foundation Peer Support Programs and 70% of funds raised go back to our local Waterloo Region community.
