Campaign Story
In the spirit of giving back to the community, and honouring the sensitive nature of Ghost BFF, the creative team behind the series are proud to launch a fundraiser for The Centre for Mindfulness Studies, located in the Parkdale neighbourhood in Toronto.
The intent of the fundraiser is to provide support (in the form of bursaries) for disadvantaged individuals who wish to obtain mindfulness education and mental health awareness. It is time to not only end the stigma surrounding mental health, but to provide access to the tools and skills to do so.
The team at The Centre for Mindfulness Studies were integral to the making of Ghost BFF by providing research about mental heath, fact checking our scripts, and assisting with the appropriate terms and language when speaking publicly about our subject matter. All of our collaboration with The Centre can be seen/heard/felt in our short educational video series, Let's Talk About Our Feels.
For just $75, an 8-week mindfulness program can be delivered by a front-line worker to a marginalized and disadvantaged social service client. Or for $200, The Centre for Mindfulness Studies can directly provide mindfulness-based therapy through our Bursary Program.
Your donation to our Mindfulness Bursary Program will help remove financial barriers and provide access to quality mindfulness for mental health programs for disadvantaged individuals who experience mental health challenges. You can make a real difference in their lives.
Donate today and help us transform lives through mindfulness. The Centre for Mindfulness Studies is a registered charity, number: 845 368 760 RR0001,

As someone who has referred people to CMS programs through the bursary program, I have seen firsthand the amazing gift this is, and how much it is appreciated.
