World Mental Health Day
Aritzia x World Mental Health Day

World Mental Health Day began in 1992 as an international day to celebrate global mental health education, awareness and advocacy against social stigma.

At Aritzia, we care about your mind and wellbeing. That’s why we’re proud to support Jack.org.

Jack.org partners with young leaders in every province and territory to improve youth mental health in their communities.

We provided Jack.org with financial support to plan and host their first-ever Hybrid Summit — a youth-led conference where delegates collaborate on solutions that improve mental wellness at a community and systemic level.
