DSOM — Mental Health Foundation of Nova Scotia

The Mental Health Foundation of Nova Scotia is not a mental health service provider.

If you’re in crisis call 911, Canada’s Suicide Crisis Helpline at 988, Nova Scotia’s Mental Health Mobile Crisis at 902.429.8167, or visit your local ER.


THANK YOU FOR $260,560 RAISED!

BMO’s A Different Stage of Mind: The Grand Finale was an inspiring night of fundraising featuring musical performances by brave community leaders who stepped out of their comfort zones and into the spotlight to raise critical funds for community mental health initiatives across Nova Scotia.

ABOUT

Each performance team pledges to fundraise $50,000 and its participants get a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to take the stage as a celebrity performer of their choice. To prepare, our stars receive several weeks of professional vocal and performance coaching. Supporters and fans alike are invited to sponsor their favourite star’s fundraising goal online through a donation and/or the purchase of event tickets or a table of eight.

Over the course of 20 years, DSOM has raised more than $5,000,000, which in turn has been reinvested into communities across the provinces for mental health programs and support services.
