While a number of causes need our support this year more than ever, one of the causes we chose to support this year is the Mental Health Foundation of Nova Scotia. Oceanstone Seaside Resort donated this "Christmas by the Sea" themed tree for auction at the Mental Health Foundation's 29th annual Festival of Trees - an event of which RBC was proud to be presenting sponsor. 

 

In a year that really put the Mental Health Foundation's work in the spotlight, it's important to ensure we're keeping our communities and those who most need our support top of mind. While 8% of Canadians reported fair/poor perceived mental health in 2018, 24% have reported fair/poor perceived mental health during the COIVD-19 pandemic*. It has been, and continues to be a tough year; let's keep working together to keep each other safe this holiday season.

 

Warmest wishes,

 

Riley
