The Sashbear Walk

Thank You for Making the 2025 Sashbear Walk a Great Success!

From walkers and volunteers to donors, sponsors, and cheer squads—thank you for helping raise awareness, build community, and break the stigma around mental health. Together, we surpassed our goal of $200,000 this season to provide families across Canada with free, life-changing support.

With Sashbear Walks in 10 cities nationwide, our community is growing stronger every year, and we’re already gearing up for 2026!

Let’s keep the momentum going and make next year’s Sashbear Walk our biggest yet.

For those in the Toronto area, mark your calendars—your Sashbear Walk will be on Sunday, May 24, 2026.

See you at the 14th annual Sashbear Walk!

About the Sashbear Walk

The Sashbear Walk has been an annual event since 2013, bringing together families, friends, those with lived experience, mental health providers and supporters throughout the community to create a sea of orange in support of those with emotion dysregulation.

This annual walk is the largest event of its kind in Canada for emotion dysregulation and borderline personality disorder. People come together to raise awareness, reduce stigma, and make waves for mental health—a journey to provide hope of a life worth living, for all.

Email walkcoordinator@sashbear.org for details on how you can help us raise awareness and break the stigma!
