The Slaight Family Foundation’s Role

The Slaight Family Foundation is committed to impactful philanthropy that improves the health and well-being of Canadian communities. Their substantial support for mental health reflects a deep understanding of the challenges faced by today's youth and a dedication to making a real difference.

“Many of our children and youth in the peninsula have unparalleled levels of anxiety and lack of stability. Those emotions have left them feeling there is very little they can depend on. Greg and I know that the services available through Pathstone can help. That is why we have chosen to make this donation to the work they do and why we ask you to do the same.“
