Bridging The Gap
Between People And Mental Health Services
Our mission is to be an agile organization so we can provide support where and when it is needed most.
About Us
Friends of the Industry Healing Together (FIHT) is a not-for-profit organization that was created by Insurance Industry Friends who saw an opportunity to band together to drive change and make a difference in the mental health crisis we are facing, by raising funds to distribute to local charities within our communities across the Country.
FIHT is unique in that we are a grassroots organization that is agile in its approach to providing support where it’s needed most as both macroeconomic and microeconomic forces drive ever-changing needs. By partnering with a variety of mental health organizations, engaging with an advisory board of health professionals, and listening to members of the industry and friends within our communities, we seek to understand the systemic causes that drive mental health challenges and focus efforts on bridging the gap between people, awareness, and resources by funding programs directly within the communities.
Help make a difference in the lives of individuals and communities across the country by donating to Friends of the Industry Healing Together. We can drive meaningful change and provide vital support to those facing mental health challenges. Donate now and join us in our mission to heal together.
How You Can Help
People affected by Mental Illness
We are dedicated to standing alongside 100 Million battling mental health challenges, providing support, resources, and awareness to help break the stigma and ensure no one faces their struggles alone.
By the time Canadians reach 40 years of age, 1 In 2 have or have had a mental illness. Access to services is a major barrier – 75% of children with mental disorders do not have access to specialized treatment services. Suicide is the second leading cause of death among youth and young adults between 15-34 years. Mental illness and substance use disorders are leading causes of disability in Canada and can cut 10-20 years from a person’s life expectancy.
