Cameco Fund For Mental Health – Saskatchewan

Step Up for Mental Health!

Established in 2019, Step Up for Mental Health is a Saskatoon-based run/walk to raise funds and awareness for mental health. Every dollar from registration fees, plus a matching amount from Cameco, supports the Cameco Fund for Mental Health. The 2023 Step Up for Mental Health run took place on September 24th. All funds raised will be disbursed to Saskatchewan organizations undertaking projects that support mental health.

Step Up for Mental Health was established by Cameco in partnership with Brainsport, Saskatoon Community Foundation and the Saskatchewan Health Authority. Applications for funding will be adjudicated by a panel that includes mental health professionals, as well as representatives from Cameco and Saskatoon Community Foundation.

The 2022 Granting Program disbursed $500,000.00 for 25 projects.

2023 Granting Program will grant more than $600,000.00 with a maximum individual grant of $50,000.00!
