MONTRÉAL, Jan. 21, 2021 /CNW
Telbec/ - Bell Let's Talk Day is just a week away, and we
would like to thank the hundreds of organizations in every corner
of Canada that are helping make the world's biggest mental health
conversation happen.
"Each of these fantastic organizations is stepping up to
highlight mental health and Bell Let's Talk Day while also taking
action to make a difference within their own organizations and
communities," said Mary Deacon,
Chair of Bell Let's Talk. "We thank them all sincerely for their
engagement and support – now more than ever as we confront the
ongoing mental health impacts of these challenging times."
The list of organizations supporting Bell Let's Talk Day
includes media creators and distributors, social media platforms,
governments, the military, unions, sports teams and athletic
organizations, festivals, associations, corporations and
competitors.
With COVID-19 restrictions in place, many have found innovative
ways to engage virtually – including the more than 200 Canadian
universities and colleges taking part in this year's Bell
Let's Talk Campus Campaign.
Bell Let's Talk thanks the following organizations for taking
action to support and promote Canada's mental health:

Bell Let's Talk Day is January
28
On Bell Let's Talk Day Canadians everywhere will
join in the global mental health conversation. You can use a wide
range of communications platforms to join in – and directly drive
Bell's donations to Canadian mental health programs simply by
participating.
On Bell Let's Talk Day, Bell donates 5
cents to Canadian mental health programs for every
applicable text, local or long distance call, tweet or TikTok video
using #BellLetsTalk, every Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest,
Snapchat, TikTok, Twitter and YouTube view of the Bell Let's Talk
Day video, and every use of the Bell Let's Talk Facebook frame or
Snapchat filter. All at no cost to participants beyond what they
would normally pay their service provider for online or phone
access.
Since the first Bell Let's Talk Day in 2011, Canadians and
people around the world have sent a total of more than 1.1 billion
messages of support for mental health, bringing Bell's total
funding commitment to $113,415,135
(which includes the company's original $50
million anchor donation when Bell Let's Talk launched in
2010, plus an additional $5
million dedicated to COVID-19 response).
About Bell Let's Talk
The largest-ever corporate
commitment to mental health in Canada, Bell Let's Talk is focused on 4 key
action pillars: Anti-stigma, Care and Access, Research and
Workplace Leadership. Since its launch in September 2010, Bell Let's Talk has partnered
with more than 1,100 organizations providing mental health supports
and services throughout Canada, including hospitals, universities,
local community service providers and other care and research
organizations.
In March 2020, Bell
announced the extension of the Bell Let's Talk initiative for
another 5 years. Including the additional COVID-19 funding, Bell is
now targeting a total corporate donation of at least $155 million to Canadian mental health
programs. To learn more, please visit Bell.ca/LetsTalk.
