Mental Health Foundation Annual Fundraising Breakfast 2026

Since 2009, this powerful event has raised over 3.4 million dollars to transform the lives of individuals and families affected by mental illness and addiction. We bring together community leaders, advocates, supporters, and changemakers to build a healthier future for Alberta.

This year, we are proud to welcome Chris Cull as the event’s keynote speaker. He is a passionate mental health and addictions advocate who has transformed nearly a decade struggling with opioid addiction, depression, anxiety, ADHD, and PTSD, into a powerful platform to highlight the humanity behind addiction and the impact of the opioid crisis across Canada.

Whether you attend in person or virtually, you’ll be breaking the stigma around mental illness and addiction and creating pathways to hope.
