In collaboration with the Canadian Mental Health Association (CMHA), Mydoh – an interactive money management app, has been committed to helping parents raise money-smart kids - has launched the first of many youth mental health initiatives with its #MydohChoreChallenge.  From May 7, National Child & Youth Mental Health Day, until June 7th, parents can task and share their kids completing a chore on social media, using the hashtag #MydohChoreChallenge. For every post, Mydoh will donate one dollar to the CMHA, up to $10,000.00, in an effort to support its mission to deliver provincial mental health programs, further equitable access to services, and champion the reduction of mental health disparities in our communities.
