At the University of Toronto Scarborough, we never underestimate the power and impact of students who want to see change.

Cam’s Kids is a national non-profit organization that is committed to supporting young people struggling with anxiety while also promoting mental health awareness. Now in its tenth year, the foundation has chapters of student ambassadors at 21 different Canadian universities and colleges.

According to the Centre for Addiction and Mental Health (CAMH), anxiety is the most common mental illness that impacts young adults. Cam’s Kids aims to help lessen this burden on youth by providing the resources to help students support and empower each other.

By running events and fundraisers to raise awareness and provide support, we strive to create a web of unity to lessen the struggle of everyday anxieties on children and young adults.
