History
Founded in 2014, MFTH started as a spark, an idea to go above and beyond in supporting the well-being of others by coordinating community effort in implementing a positive influence. Since then, MFTH has developed a key focus on raising mental health awareness at a provincial level through numerous collaborations with the British Columbia Schizophrenia Society (BCSS).
In 2019, MFTH joined forces with BCSS as one unit to make a concerted effort to advocating for better services, educating the public, and raising funds to directly support individuals and families coping with schizophrenia and other serious and persistent mental illnesses.
