It’s that time of year again – we are so excited to announce the 3rd annual Be Kind To Your Mind summer fundraiser in support of Looking Glass Foundation!

Join us on Wednesday, July 17 from 6-9pm at Container Brewing in East Vancouver for some fun in the sun while supporting an amazing cause.

Be Kind To Your Mind is a community fundraiser founded by one of Looking Glass’ compassionate peer support volunteers, Christina Kouvousis. Christina has been organizing Be Kind events for over a decade, spreading awareness and raising funds to support live-changing programs and resources for mental health organizations across Greater Vancouver. We are absolutely honoured that Looking Glass has been chosen as the event’s charitable partner for the third year running!

Funds raised will directly support Looking Glass Foundation’s accessible and inclusive programs and services. Together this summer, we can spread kindness, reduce stigma, and help those affected by eating disorders receive the crucial support they deserve.
