Montréal (Québec), October 29, 2026 – Harden renewed its support for the Let’s Bond Urban Ball as a Diamond Partner for the event’s 14th edition, held on October 16 at Théâtre Cartier in Montréal. Presented by RBC under the theme “Dangerously Yours,” the evening united Montreal’s business community in support of an important cause: mental health.

Funds raised are distributed among various organizations and initiatives dedicated to advancing mental health research, care, prevention, and strengthening community support:

$250,000 to the Douglas Hospital to support mental health research and treatment;
$250,000 to the Youth in Mind Foundation, dedicated to mental health prevention initiatives targeting youth;
$100,000 to the UP House, which provides a recovery-focused environment for individuals whose lives have been impacted by mental health challenges;
Support to the Let’s Bond fund, to nearly 12 foundations and other mental health initiatives this year.

“At Harden, our commitment to the community extends far beyond financial support. It is rooted in building lasting relationships, engaging our teams, and contributing to the causes that matter in a concrete way,” stated Chris Harden, Harden’s Co-Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of Let’s Bond since 2015. “Mental health is a cause that matters deeply to our company and the communities we serve. I am proud to continue our commitment and work alongside our teams and partners to help advance the conversation and foster greater openness around mental health.”

Since 2011, Harden has strengthened its commitment to Let’s Bond through ongoing organizational support and the active involvement of its team and broader network. Year after year, the company encourages employees, their families, and business partners to get involved, helping extend the Let’s Bond mission well beyond the events themselves.

This commitment reflects Harden’s approach to corporate social responsibility, which focuses on building lasting relationships with community organizations and fostering active engagement among its teams.
