75 per cent of mental illnesses begin before the age of 25. Early intervention, treatment, and care are essential to preventing a lifetime of challenges and creating brighter futures for children and youth. Thanks to an extraordinary $15-million donation from Save-On-Foods—the largest mental health gift in our history—BC Children’s Hospital is leading a bold transformation in mental health care. With the support of their supplier partners, dedicated team members, and generous customers, Save-On-Foods has long been a champion for children’s health. This historic gift is their latest step in a legacy of giving that spans over $60 million to children’s hospitals across western Canada. This incredible donation will: • Establish Canada’s first Interventional Psychiatry Initiative, pioneering treatments like brain stimulation and digital therapeutics for severe mental illnesses. • Expand the Transition and Linking Care (TLC) Team, providing enhanced support for kids with complex mental health needs and their families. • Create an endowed Hospital Chair in Mental Health & Substance Use, driving research and innovation for generations to come. “This extraordinary $15-million gift from Save-On-Foods propels the vision for a brighter future for children across British Columbia,” said Malcolm Berry, president and CEO of BC Children’s Hospital Foundation. “It empowers BC Children’s Hospital leadership to recruit top talent, expand critical programs, and transform how mental health care is delivered—creating meaningful change for thousands of young lives and, ultimately, stronger communities.” This milestone exemplifies the power of community partnerships. Thank you, Save-On-Foods, for your unwavering commitment to the health and well-being of children and families across BC and the Yukon.

Wishing everyone a very happy holiday season filled with family, friends and good food, from all of us at Save-On-Foods! 🎄
