We at
EDOYR have been busy. It's day three of
Mental Health Week and we've got a great deal to show for it (literally...see the photos below). On Wednesday May 9, we went to
St. Theresa of Lisieux Catholic High School (CHS) in Richmond Hill to take part in their Mental Health Fair. We met with students, teachers, guidance counselors and representatives from other organizations in an attempt to raise mental health awareness.
While we were at the local high school, we also spread information about our
Show Your True Colours campaign. Tons of students and teachers expressed their interest and support. We cannot thank you enough.
Check out our
Twitter and
Facebook pages for more photos of the day's events.

Look at those amazing shirts! EDOYR had a ton of fun at St. Theresa's SOS club's Mental Health Fair. |

EDOYR was giving out our gear at St. Theresa! Buttons and bracelets for everyone. |
|
Students, teachers, guidance counselors and the like were stopping by our booth to ask questions about eating disorders and how to get involved with EDOYR. If you're interested in getting involved, e-mail info@edoyr.com. We're ALWAYS looking for new helpers. |

A lot of students weren't aware that men could have eating disorders, too. Well, they can! For more information, visit our website. |

We loved this banner so much that we had to take a photo. "Live the life you have imagined." So beautiful! |
