Thanks to the generosity of so many parishioners who contributed to our Christmas Tree fundraiser in December, we were able to make a gift of $1,065.00 to the Coast Mental Health Foundation. We recently received this letter of thanks:

Thank you. Parish of St. Mary’s Kerrisdale’s generous gift of $1,065.00 to Coast Mental Health Foundation is making an impact in the lives of some of the most vulnerable people in our society. Your support provides people living with mental illness the resources they need to thrive in our communities: a safe place to call home, a community to connect and engage, and opportunities to learn and gain new skills. Your generosity truly changes lives. As one client recently said: “I wanted to thank you for all that you do. If I didn’t have Coast, I don’t know what I would do.” On behalf of the Coast Mental Health Foundation and the many people who benefit from your kindness - please accept our sincere thanks.

~ Warm regards, Isabela Zabava, Executive Director
