Kicking for CAMH: Shorinji Kempo Kick-a-thon
On May 27, Shorinji Kempo Toronto Branch hosted its 14th Annual Charity "Kick-a-thon" to raise funds for CAMH.
Members of the branch performed 500 successive kicks with loud kai (yell) in return for generous sponosrhip from supporters. The event raised a total of $7,500, bringing the grand total of funds raised for CAMH to $80,000!
The Kickathon event is the longest standing charitable initiative supporting the CAMH Foundation and, prior to 1998, the Addiction Research Foundation (ARF), one of CAMH’s four founding organizations.
The philosophy of Shorinji Kempo emphasizes importance of helping people to help themselves. They believe this event helps them practice this ideal and offers a ray of hope to those seemingly trapped by serious, life-threatening addictive illnesses.
We wish to thank Shorinji Kempo Toronto Branch and their generous sponsors for their continued support.
