Ride for Mackenzie Health is back!
Registration is now open for the 11th annual Ride for Mackenzie Health, presented by CIBC! Join us on Sunday, September 28, 2025, at Westlin Farms for an unforgettable day of community, celebration and impact.
As we look forward to this year’s event, we’re reminded of stories like Charlie’s.
Just weeks after losing his mother, Rosa, Charlie joined a team to honour the care she received at both Mackenzie Richmond Hill and Cortellucci Vaughan Hospitals. Still grieving, he showed up, and so did his community. His teammates wore Rosa’s photo on their shoulders. His family lined the route, cheering him on. In that moment, Charlie found strength in honouring her memory and purpose in giving back.
Whether you ride for someone you love or to support exceptional care, every kilometre counts.
Choose your route: 40 km, 70 km or 100 km and ride for impact.
A new chapter in mental health care 
Earlier this month, Mackenzie Health and Mackenzie Health Foundation were joined by the Ministry of Health and Associate Minister of Mental Health & Addictions to announce the opening of a new 20-bed Adult Inpatient Unit at Mackenzie Richmond Hill Hospital. The new units boost our acute mental health care capacity by more than 60%, enabling care for an additional 320 people per year.
Read more about this milestone here and watch an impactful video, highlighting the mental health care team at Mackenzie Health and our inspiring patients.
A gift of hope from the Goldberg Family Foundation 
The Goldberg Family Foundation is helping to shine a light on our community with a transformational $1-million gift to Mackenzie Health Foundation — a lead contribution to our $10-million mental health campaign. Their generosity will support critical enhancements to mental health care at Mackenzie Health, helping us respond to the growing need for accessible, compassionate support.
We are deeply grateful to the Goldberg family for helping us build a brighter future for those who need it most.
Donate now to help ensure care is available, close to home, when it’s needed most.
