The Luke Cyr Foundation’s Mission
The Luke Cyr Foundation is committed to providing vital mental health support to those who have given so much – our veterans, first responders, and others who struggle with PTSD. Through our programs and partnerships, such as The Caddie School for Soldiers and The Robbie Dean Centre, we aim to bring light into the lives of those who have retreated into darkness. Every dollar raised goes directly towards expanding our outreach, enhancing our services, and ensuring that no one faces their mental health challenges alone.
