On March 2nd, 2001, Kerry and Ginny Dennehy lost their 17-year-old son, Kelty, to depression. Their grief ignited a determination to help other children. From this, The Kelty Patrick Dennehy Foundation was born.
In 2009, the Dennehy’s suffered another heartbreaking tragedy with the loss of their daughter, Riley at age 22, while she was doing yoga studies in Thailand.
Amidst unimaginable losses, Ginny and Kerry, alongside the Foundation's board of directors and community of supporters and donors, remained steadfast in their mission to help youth access mental health support.
Over the years, The Kelty Patrick Dennehy Foundation has raised close to 8 million dollars, built Kelty Mental Health Resource Centers at both BC Children's and Lions Gate Hospital, and achieved countless other milestones for mental health support across the country. Now more than ever, we are committed to continuing on this trajectory to make a profound impact on the next generation.
