Mount Boucherie Secondary School wants to make a change with its first Walk for Mental Health.

On May 30, a walk will take place with all proceeds going to the Foundry, a wellness centre for people age 12 to 24 and their families.

Every participant is asked to pledge a minimum of $10. The goal is to raise $10,000.

The walk will take place in two groups with one at 9:20 a.m. and the second scheduled for 10:30 a.m.

People are encouraged to stay for food trucks, games, and other outdoor activities following the walks.

Community members can register for the event and make a pledge online. MBSS students can complete registration packets provided by the teachers.
