On Oct. 2, 2019, over 1300 community leaders joined the Royal Ottawa Foundation at the annual Leaders for Mental Health Breakfast, raising over $600,000 for mental health care and research. This is the largest 'day-of' total ever! In addition, it is anticipated the total funds raised will increase as many people send in their pledges in the coming weeks after the Breakfast.
As part of the unique event program, this year dedicated to schizophrenia research and recovery at The Royal; six brave story tellers shared their lived experience with schizophrenia. You're invited to watch and share their very personal stories.
Thank you to everyone who helped make this a record-breaking event. Together, we are getting people better, faster.
