Stories of Hope‘Raising a little help’ for women’s mental health—the 2021 Run For Women

Posted on: Jul 15, 2021

Another successful year for an amazing program—the 2021 Run For Women raised over $250,000 in total for women’s mental health programs across the country!

The 2021 Run For Women from Shoppers LOVE YOU went virtual again this year, with Edmonton’s run/walk taking place between July 4th and 11th.

We had nearly 2,000 registrants participating from near and far, and the event succeeded in raising a total of $254,486—far exceeding our goal!!

This is another enormous step forward for women’s health and women’s mental health, as proceeds from the run go to support women’s mental health programs across Canada, including the Lois Hole Hospital for Women right here in Edmonton.

A huge thank you to everyone who signed up, everyone who walked or ran, everyone who donated, everyone who cheered on a family member or friend (or a new friend!), everyone who shared their story, everyone who tagged us on social media, and everyone who decided to lend their voice to the importance of women’s health. 

We could not be more grateful to Shoppers Drug Mart and the Shoppers LOVE YOU program for their leadership and enormous support they’ve shown over the years, and their dedication to such a worthy cause.

THANK YOU, AND WE HOPE TO SEE YOU ALL AGAIN NEXT YEAR!

To support women’s health, please consider a donation to the Lois Hole Hospital for Women.
