Involved
We are a federally registered charitable organization. We do not receive any consistent government funding and rely on donations. We are one of the largest community-based eating disorder treatment programs across Canada.
The Impact of COVID-19
We have had overwhelming demand with over one thousand individuals reaching out for help. Time on a waitlist has a negative impact and has been shown to increase the duration and impact of an eating disorder. You can help us provide more treatment programs for more people so that no one has to wait for essential, timely care.
Become a Donor/Sponsor
Body Brave does not receive any consistent government funding, so donors are a vital part of keeping our doors open. We are a federally registered charity and will provide tax receipts for donations over $20.
