We know you are passionate about taking action to support children’s mental health, including breaking stigmas, starting conversations, and being a mentor and role model for the children in your lives. And we need your help.
We are in a national crisis. One in five children is living with a mental illness, and 50 percent of all lifetime mental illnesses start by age 14.
Join the Jefferson Valley Mall in this empowering movement for children's mental health by registering for the virtual Butterfly Run presented by Big Lots Foundation.
The Butterfly Run is a community fitness event to grow awareness, break stigmas, and raise funds for the On Our Sleeves® movement for children’s mental health. Complete your 5k run or walk anytime between August 10 – October 10 while fundraising along the way.
By registering for The Butterfly Run you will receive a t-shirt, medal, and swag bag. You will also be eligible for exclusive incentive gear as you reach fundraising milestones.
Now, more than ever, the dollars you raise are critical. Children's mental health is an often overlooked and a vastly underfunded component of pediatric health and research.
No action is too small. No voice is too young. Together, we can impact children's mental health. Will you join us?
