About
The Schizophrenia Society of Canada Foundation (SSCF) was founded in 1994 with a generous donation from the late Dr. Michael Smith. Dr. Smith's donation of half of his Nobel Prize Laureate monies was used to help form a research fund. It is a legacy that continues to inspire others to invest in research initiatives today. The charity was started as frankly Schizophrenia is a underrated mental illness that affects 300,000 Canadians and around 51 million people globally. The disease affected 6 out of our nine board members either directly or indirectly; causing us to start a charity that now organizes fundraisers to help develop molecular genetics, imaging and biochemistry of the central nervous system and psychosocial rehabilitation with special emphasis on schizophrenia and psychosis. Since 1994, SSCF has funded 16 multi-year fellowships; with other mental illness corporations, that have the same emphasis in treating Schizophrenia.
We hope to raise four million dollars towards this devastating disease, that can mentally take the people that we love most away from us, in six years! We need your help!

A message from the board of directors at SSCF:
Dear SSCF Clients,

Unfortunately mental diseases are often regarded as difficult, especially schizophrenia as the causes and course of the illness is unique for each person. This organization was founded to help these individuals from living with Schizophrenia; and lead them to a road of recovery. If you feel you have this disease, do not be afraid, treatment's are stronger than ever, and a healthy recovery awaits you.
