The Shoppers LOVE. YOU. Run for Women

The SHOPPERS LOVE. YOU. Run for Women is back in Kelowna on May 12, 2019 in support of women’s mental health initiatives in our community. It is a 5K Run/Walk, 10K Run and Little Steps 1K taking place in 17 cities across Canada. Living with mental health challenges is hard but we can come together make a difference. The SHOPPERS LOVE. YOU Run for Women has raised over $3.4 million dollars for local mental health services. Every dollar raised supports mothers, daughters, and friends through the funding of programs that allow women to take that next step to recovery. In Kelowna, proceeds are in support of The Women’s Wellness Programs at CMHA Kelowna. The programs support the mental health of hundreds of women each year by helping them learn and improve themselves both physically and mentally. Research shows that running and walking is as effective as taking medication for mild to moderate depression and anxiety. When we come together to walk or run with friends, we experience that exercise can heal the mind and restore the soul. Our dream is for all Canadians to experience that healing feeling of exercise. By registering and fundraising, you can make a difference in your life and the lives of those in need. Join us and prove that incredible change is possible when you LOVE. YOU.
