Eden Health Care Services hosted one of two gala events this week Thursday night in Winkler celebrating its 50th anniversary.

Mme. Margaret Trudeau was the keynote speaker, and she shared her story of struggling with mental illness

 

It was an inspiring evening of stories from those who have persevered while living through the reality of a mental illness. Those stories included the four Mental Health Heroes nominated by you. They were Warren Friesen, Janine Munro, Nathan Elias and Sylvia Fehr.

 

Morning Show Co-Host Chris Sumner MC’d the evening, and took a moment to speak with Eden Health Care Services Board Chair Evelyn Labun about the celebration, Eden’s legacy and its future.

 

 

The second of the two evenings is happening Friday, November 10th in Winnipeg, and Madame Margret Trudeau will again be the keynote speaker.

 

Bass vocalist Phillip Ens Jr. was one of the entertainers who took the stage
