On August 29, 2023, Looking Glass Foundation had the honour of partnering with the Be Kind To Your Mind community fundraiser for the second year in a row! Together we welcomed many new and familiar faces at Container Brewing for an evening of delicious food and beverages, uplifting live music, and heartfelt connection – all in the name of eating disorder recovery. 

Thanks to the generosity and enthusiasm of all who attended, we raised an incredible $9,425 towards our programs and services – nearly doubling last year’s total! A big congratulations to our lucky 50/50 Raffle winner, ticket #B-3386, who took home half of the final jackpot. 

“It was such a wonderful evening. Being able to connect with the community, in person, was really special. Everyone had a great time. I am honoured to partner with Looking Glass, helping bring awareness and shining a light on eating disorders and the importance of accessible services and resources.” – Christina, Founder of Be Kind To Your Mind

Community of Care 

We would like to extend our gratitude to our Venue Partner Container Brewing for hosting us and providing a wonderful atmosphere for our event, Entertainment Partner Musos Entertainment and performer Evan Kennedy for an uplifting live performance, and Photography Partner Stephanie Porter for beautifully capturing the evening.
