Mental health plays an integral role in shaping our outlook and how we approach life, which is why Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션�s graduate student Ampai Thammachack is committed to supporting systemic change in mental healthcare.

As the founder of not-for-profit organizations Step Above Stigma and The Glass Slipper Organization, Thammachack was recently selected as a L카지노 게임 컬렉션�Oréal Paris Woman of Worth and will receive a $10,000 grant for philanthropic use.

Currently pursuing a master카지노 게임 컬렉션�s in human geography, Thammachack didn카지노 게임 컬렉션�t always envision herself at Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션�s, let alone founding two not-for-profit organizations aimed at raising awareness of mental health and combating stigma.

For Thammachack, the issue of mental health is personal. Growing up in Bedford, N.S., she experienced her own mental health issues. Seeking help from counsellors and other available resources, Thammachack began her journey towards improving her mental health as well as helping others who may be struggling.  

카지노 게임 컬렉션�Through my own experiences coping with undiagnosed PTSD for most of my life and watching my friends and family struggle with their mental health, I realized the importance of mental health advocacy,카지노 게임 컬렉션� Thammachack says. 카지노 게임 컬렉션�Being selected as a L카지노 게임 컬렉션�Oréal Woman of Worth is incredibly rewarding as it has given me the opportunity to help others understand that they do not need to make themselves small and recognize that help is available.카지노 게임 컬렉션�

Not-for-profit leadership

Prior to attending Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션�s for her undergraduate studies Thammachack started , a non-profit group responsible for donating more than 1,000 prom dresses to students unable to afford a gown for graduation and formal events.

While completing a bachelor카지노 게임 컬렉션�s degree in kinesiology and health science, Thammachack created , an organization selling socks marked with the slogan 카지노 게임 컬렉션�Step Above Stigma카지노 게임 컬렉션� and donates 100 per cent of the proceeds to mental health organizations across Canada. To date, the organization has held 504 events and initiatives, raised over $120,000, served 480,000 individuals, and drawn the support of 100 student volunteers.

Focusing on marginalized groups disproportionately affected by barriers to mental health care due to race, gender and socio-economic status, Thammachack카지노 게임 컬렉션�s aim is to raise awareness and normalize the importance of getting help.
