Our third edition was marked by generosity, energy, and the commitment of an entire community.
What if a simple evening with friends could help improve the mental health of thousands of people?
That’s exactly what you made possible by attending the third edition of our Mental Health Bingo Night, presented by Fairstone, held on May 21st at Entrepôts Dominion.
Thanks to your presence and generosity, we raised an incredible $52,030 to support mental health research and care at the Douglas Institute.
A joyful, unifying, and meaningful event
You showed up for an evening hosted with heart by the legendary MC Gilles, filled with team quizzes, exciting prizes, mouthwatering smash burgers from Mange dans mon hood, and refreshing Pit Caribou beers — all in a warm and engaged atmosphere.
Outstanding prizes offered by our partners
A huge thank-you to our partners for the exceptional prizes, including:
A Lambert bag set and a gift basket from Karine Joncas Cosmétiques
Four tickets to the Orchestre symphonique de Montréal (OSM)
A pair of round-trip Air Canada tickets to Europe
A L’Oréal gift basket + two tickets to the Orchestre Métropolitain
Four tickets to the show Chiendent by Mégan Brouillard, along with a board game bundle from Gamekeeper Verdun
Together, we’re advancing research
This success wouldn’t have been possible without your involvement and the support of our sponsors, Fairstone and WSP. Whether by buying a ticket, attending, or spreading the word — you made a difference.
Thank you for supporting the Douglas Foundation and for advancing mental health research with us.
Shall we see you next year for an even more vibrant fourth edition?
Until then, take a look at our photo album from the evening: here.
