An article published online today by The Chronicle Herald:
The Mental Health Foundation elected Fred MacGillivray [pictured] as their new chair for the Nova Scotia board of directors.
Mr. MacGillivray has been a board member for many years and has been instrumental in the foundation’s A Different Stage of Mind campaign which raised $1 million for Nova Scotia mental health programs and services.
“With mental health in the spotlight now more than ever before, this is an exciting time to be leading this foundation that is committed to enhancing and improving the quality of life for Nova Scotians with mental illness,” said Mr. MacGillivray.
The foundation was created in 1987. It raises mental health awareness and supports organizations that provide mental health care in Nova Scotia.
The election occurred at their annual general meeting on Thursday. Mr. MacGillivray is replacing Robert Hunt who has been chair since September 2007.
Mr. MacGillivray was the president and chief executive officer of Trade Centre Limited between 1994 and March of this year.
