Organiser's description

RUN, WALK, BIKE, SWIM OR HIKE A MARATHON IN MAY (26.2 MILES) FOR MENTAL HEALTH.

MAY IS MENTAL HEALTH MONTH! It is the perfect time to show your support of MENTAL HEALTH FOR ALL! The pandemic highlighted just how vital it is for all individuals to have access to quality mental health treatment. Pelican Cove Counseling Centers (PCCC) opened it's doors in June 2020, just in time to serve individuals dealing with loss, economic hardship, anxiety, depression and stress due to the pandemic. These individuals would not have had access to open-ended and long-term mental health treatment due to financial limitations, thus highlighting the importance of PCCC. Pelican Cove was organized to provide mental health services for low or no-income individuals with mental health needs. Your support of PCCC will enable us to continue our mission, and to expand services to include wellness and prevention, as well as psychological testing.

Show your support by getting outside and exercising your way through MAY in your RUN . HEAL . THRIVE - _MARATHON IN MAY!_ shirt.

* You have 31 days to complete your goal of 26.2 miles.
