We Can Make A Difference: Share Lawyers Supports Kids Help Phone!
Congratulations to the Share Lawyers team, and everyone who came out to support the Kids Help Phone Walk-a-thon last Sunday, May 3rd, 2015. We were honoured to have so many people from the Share Lawyers community join us as well as seeing thousands of others across Canada that came together in support of children and youth. Your support helps to ensure that the 6.5 million kids, teens, and young adults in Canada between the ages of five and twenty always have access to Kids Help Phone's counselling services, day and night, and with your support, we raised a total of $1290 for this amazing cause!
Kids Help Phone is the only national professional counselling service supporting kids 24/7/365. Professional counsellors provide anonymous, confidential and non-judgemental support. Kids Help Phone is the only organization that has access to a database of over 37,000 local resources. That means that no matter where a kid is calling from, their professional counsellors can connect them to a service right in their community, whether they need a place to stay for the night, a way-home or a sexual health clinic.
The Share Lawyers Community proudly supports Kids Help Phone. As advocates, we at Share Lawyers aim to help children, teenagers and adults have a voice, and have access to resources to help them during a hard time in their lives.
