Raising Spirits YYC is proud to support the Alberta Children’s Hospital here in Calgary. The donations raised at our events are invested in family centred child health programs, specialized life-saving equipment and advanced pediatric research and education.

Over $500K Raised — And We’re Just Getting Started

RaisingSpiritsYYC began as a vision from a father who recognized the urgent need to support youth mental health. Today, it stands as an 8-year legacy of community, generosity, and impact, having raised over $500K for the Alberta Children’s Hospital Foundation, specifically for Child, Adolescent, and Emerging Adult Mental Health.

Every dollar from our sponsors and silent auctions goes directly to the hospital and the initiatives we fund — no overhead, no salaries. Our 100% volunteer board even covers many expenses out of pocket, which is one of the many aspects that makes this event truly special.
