A lot of money was raised for mental health initiatives in the Battlefords thanks to the #SickNotWeak awareness event hosted by Michael Landsberg.
In a news release it was confirmed that more than $35,000 was raised in North Battleford. Support came from the Rotary Club of the Battlefords, Cameco and several generous local businesses. Donations were also accepted from the public after the event at the Civic Centre, which saw over 2,500 people attend on March 15.
All donations will be held in trust by Canadian Mental Health Association Battlefords Branch for mental health initiatives and education in the Battlefords and area.
As well, Access TV will be rebroadcasting the show on March 29 at 7 p.m.
