Two powerhouse names in Calgary have joined forces to support the Calgary Mental Health Association (CMHA).
Balwant Singh, who owns three Shell gas stations, and Danny LeGresley, a widely known mental health advocate who hails from Auburn Bay, are hosting ‘It’s okay not to be okay’- a big fundraiser being held on Canada Day (July 1, 2020) that will help raise awareness for mental health, a benefit for everyone, especially during a pandemic.
Profits on sales from three Shell locations – 61 Riverside Drive (Okotoks), 1135 North Railway Street (Okotoks), and 4312 1st West – Claresholm – will be donated to the CMHA. Sales from the ‘It’s okay not to be okay’ t-shirts and firewood will also be donated to the CMHA.
Shell Canada has also announced that they will match all donations made on July 1.
“When you fill up at the pumps or purchase anything from our three Shell locations, your money will go towards a great cause that will help the CMHA,” says Singh, who is also the owner of A&W at Auburn Station in Calgary.
Singh is known for his staunch commitment to community outreach and works tirelessly fundraising for the community, both through his Shell and A&W operations.

“Our fundraiser will go a long way and help the CMHA support those who need it most – individuals and families – and it will allow them to offer more counseling and support services for members of our community,” he adds.
