It’s Bell Let’s Talk Day 2019 and the public invited to talk, text and get engaged in the conversation on Twitter, Facebook, Instagram and Snapchat all day long to help fight the stigma, call for action and drive Bell’s donations to mental health at no cost to people.
Today, January 30, 2019, Bell is ready to surpass 1 billion all-time Bell Let’s Talk Day messages of support for mental health, while Bell’s total funding commitment to mental health is set to top $100 million.
“Bell Let’s Talk Day has quickly grown into the biggest conversation about mental health anywhere and we hope you’ll join in to let those who struggle know they’ve got your support,” said Mary Deacon, Chair of Bell Let’s Talk., in a media release.
“By raising our voices today, we drive action in mental health all year long – including Bell’s ongoing donations to care, research, community development and other initiatives,” “Bell Let’s Talk is a made-in-Canada mental health program that has captured the attention of the world – including major influencers and celebrities who’ve joined our Bell Let’s Talk team in spreading the word about mental health.”
In addition to talk, text and other interactions of support today, views of the Bell Let’s Talk Day videos on social media platforms are counted toward Bell’s donation to mental health.
It’s easy to be part of the Bell Let’s Talk Day conversation all day long and across multiple communications platforms.
Bell donates 5 cents to Canadian mental health programs for each of these interactions, at no extra cost to participants beyond what they would normally pay their service provider for online or phone access:
– Talk: Every mobile call and every long distance call made by Bell wireless and phone customers
– Text: Every text message sent by Bell wireless customers
– Twitter: Every tweet and retweet using #BellLetsTalk, featuring the special Bell Let’s Talk emoji and Bell
