Funds from this year’s Naked Bungy event will enable mental health support for over 625 individuals on Vancouver Island.

 “Raising awareness and support for mental health is possibly more important this year than ever before.” said Tom Benson, CEO of WildPlay. “I am so thrilled with the impact this annual fundraiser has made in our community. Well done to all of the brave souls who came out and jumped in the buff for mental health!”
