"The Class of 2021 agreed that in light of COVID-19 mental health should be a priority now more than ever," said Simonot. "
"She was a regular happy girl, nothing seemingly wrong. She was involved in the school community through sports and the grad service project of 2011. We knew that our school community would connect to her and her story as easily as it has," she said.
"This cause is actually very personal for me, it is another way for me to support my friends who are struggling, a way to communicate to every person who is willing to listen that they are not alone," said Forsyth. "That everyone is feeling or has felt a toll on their mental health and that there are resources and people out there to help."
The burger was designed featuring some of More's favourite ingredients. The Big Smile features marinated chicken breast, bacon, a sunny fried egg, arugula, tomato, balsamic glaze and a lime avocado aioli on a brioche bun and is served with hand-cut fries.
"In a year of such uncertainty, I am so proud of how our students have found such unique ways to fundraise and create awareness for mental health," said Notre Dame principal
