Charitable Impact

One in five Canadians will experience a form of mental illness in their lifetime. Whether we’ve been personally affected ourselves, or know a family member, friend, or colleague who has, mental health is a cause that touches us all.

Clara Hughes knows the struggle with mental illness. Behind her inspiring athletic achievements and famous smile was a private battle with depression. Clara reached out and got help. But for many who experience mental illness, the fear and stigma attached to the illness is overwhelming. That’s why Clara’s raising her voice and taking her story on the road.

Clara’s Big Ride for Bell Let’s Talk is inviting you to help end the stigma of mental illness by raising awareness and funds for mental health. By empowering and engaging communities across Canada, we can work together to make a difference.

Clara’s Big Ride

Clara starts her inspiring 110-day journey on March 14th in Toronto, cycling 12,000 kms and visiting 95 communities along the way. Reaching every province and territory, Clara’s Big Ride is about connecting the country to the mental health conversation and inspiring Canadians to make a difference in their workplaces, schools, and communities.

Follow Clara’s journey and find out when she’ll be in a community near you.
