100% of all proceeds from this event will be donated to the Box Around Your Heart Campaign in partnership with Richmond Hospital Foundation.

Our school has pledged to raise money for the development of a critically needed specialized mental health zone in the Emergency Department of Richmond Hospital --a dedicated and patient-centered space that reduces excessive light, noise, and visual stimuli, health care teams can offer a more supportive and calming environment, helping patients feel safer and more at ease.

What is the Box Around Your Heart Campaign?

Box Around Your Heart campaign wants to ensure all young hearts and minds are nurtured and protected! They are dedicated to transforming mental health for youth and their families by creating safe, supportive experiences across all levels of care. Rooted in lived experiences, their mission is to ensure that every young person facing a mental health crisis receives compassionate, comprehensive support. The Box Around Your Heart team is working in partnership with Richmond Hospital Foundation to make the much needed mental health zone a reality.
