I am happy to say the Foundation has experienced tremendous growth this past year. The Douglas Institute has become the gold standard in mental health research and care in Quebec, and it is in no small part thanks to the support of our donors. We are happy to share these successes with you.
Please find enclosed the Douglas Foundation’s Annual Impact Report, which outlines how donor support is behind us every step of the way. Your support matters more than you might realize. Most importantly, it demonstrates that we are not alone in our dedication to pursuing innovative research and delivering compassionate care to those who need it most.
I want to thank you once more for your generosity. Together, we are building hope for all those whose lives have been affected by mental illness.
*Please note that the Foundation’s offices are closed from December 22 to January 2, 2024 inclusively.
Happy Holidays,
Laura Fish, President and CEO
The Ouverts d’esprit evening broke a new record last Thursday, February 26, at the Théâtre Paradoxe — marking the second consecutive year of record-breaking impact!
A major water leak in January 2026 caused significant losses at the Douglas Research Centre, directly impacting research teams. An emergency campaign is underway to support the resumption of essential mental health research.
Laughter, generosity and solidarity were at the heart of the Douglas Show, a memorable evening that made a meaningful contribution to mental health research.
