Support Jack.org

No young person should experience ongoing feelings of despair, worthlessness, or hopelessness without support. But many do. Donate today to show youth they’re not alone.

Suicide is the second leading cause of death in young people in Canada. Jack.org helps youth talk about it. Your help is vital, too. We rely on the generous support of donors and partners to be there for youth and empower them with the essentials for mental wellness.
