Project Upstream is a registered charitable organization, committed to offering adults, youth and their families the community-based supports and services they need to rebuild lives affected by persistent mental illness.

The Youth Matters Campaign supports the expansion of a Youth Pilot Project which is designed to provide assistance to Youth between the ages of 16 and 24 and to aid in the transition to adult mental health services.

Project Upstream’s cost-effective, pro-active approach maximizes the welfare of young persons and their communities. With your help, our expanded pilot will not only increase our ability to help our Youth in crisis but will bring us closer to securing our bid for permanent ongoing funding!

  ° National Capital Marathon
Team Paul Kennedy fundraising for Project Upstream
   
On October 22nd, 2002 the Kennedy Family’s youngest son Paul, age 22, died as the result of a tragic automobile accident on the job. Paul’s generosity in life continued in death, as he was able to donate eight of his organs and tissues to improve the quality of life for eight other individuals.

In memory of Paul, his family and friends created Paul’s Team as part of the National Capital Race Weekend in May. Since its’ inception in
2003, the principal objective of Paul’s team has been raising awareness of the need for organ and tissue donation. This year, Paul’s team has decided to take on another challenge and promote another worthy cause. In 2009, family and friends will walk and run for Project Upstream in support of those who suffer from long-term mental illness. The opportunity to partner with a local charity that reaches out and helps those in need epitomizes everything that Paul represented in life.

This year’s event promises to be a fantastic time for all involved!
