Stand Up for Mental Health

Together, we can make a difference!

Please join our team as we participate in the Nemours Children’s Health Run and Walk on Saturday, November 22, 2025, to Stand Up for Mental Health by raising funds for Nemours Children’s Health.

These programs raise money and awareness for rapid access to mental health services for children and families (PATH) and financial support for families who would otherwise not have access to mental health services.  PATH overcomes transportation barriers that keep too many children from attending in-person appointments and receiving the care they need. In 2023, 1,654 children received face-to face video counseling and 5000+ parent interactions were made with program staff via the Nemours App.

In addition, your donation would support an innovative, first of its kind model offering our patients and families the enhanced clinical service of Animal-Assisted Treatment (AATx). Animal-Assisted involves specially trained and licensed medical, mental health or other service providers working with qualified animals in each child’s treatment process, along with local expert animal handlers, to help with kids’ emotional growth and learning.

We want to exceed our fundraising goal, but we can only
do that with your help! To date, Stand Up For Mental Health has raised $38,350 and we are hoping to exceed our fundraising goal of $5,000 this year!  Please consider donating to our page. Your tax-deductible gift will help Nemours provide unsurpassed care throughout our community and beyond.

Thank you!
