Run for Women 2026

Ravens for Mental Health

We are excited to announce Carleton’s continued participation in The Shoppers Drug Mart® Run for Women 5K and 10K walk/run in support of The Royal and local women’s mental health programs.

As part of this initiative, we invite you to join Carleton’s Ravens for Mental Health team. To date, Carleton has raised over $20,000 in support of mental health programs in our region. Together, we can continue make a big difference to support mental health in our community. “With your support of The Royal, more women and their families can access the help they need, when they need it, so they can reclaim who they were meant to be.”
