The presence and generosity of the attendees marked a significant milestone for the Douglas Foundation’s mission. Thanks to their support, an impressive $185,000<\/strong> was raised to support mental health research at the Douglas Institute.<\/p>\n

The inaugural BBQ Douglas event turned out to be a true success, made possible by the commitment of participants, partners, and the Lighter Committee volunteers. The evening was a refined blend of unique gastronomic experiences, masterfully crafted by BBQ Qu\u00e9bec, and touching moments, enhanced by the moving musical performances of invited artists, including Jonathan Roy.<\/p>\n

The Douglas Foundation would also like to extend a heartfelt thank you to its valuable partners, whose support was crucial to the event’s success. Principal partners Canderel and Tory’s LLP played a key role with their unwavering commitment. Bronze partners\u2014Bank of Nova Scotia, Stikeman Elliott, PlusGrade, and the Amiel Family Foundation\u2014also made essential contributions that helped advance the Foundation\u2019s mission.

Together, let us build hope for all those whose lives have been affected by mental illness. We look forward to seeing you again next year!<\/p>\n
