Au Contraire Montréal Film Festival on Mental Health in support of UP House

Le Festival du film Au Contraire est une initiative de Paradis Urbain, un organisme de bienfaisance canadien enregistré. Sa mission est de soutenir les personnes qui, en raison de la maladie mentale, éprouvent des difficultés à se sortir de leur situation et à reprendre le cours de leur vie. Reconnaissant la sensibilité des Montréalais face au pouvoir mobilisateur de l’expression artistique, Parad

is Urbain vise, par le truchement du Festival du film Au Contraire, à combattre les stéréotypes et à contrer la stigmatisation entourant la maladie mentale. The Au Contraire Film Festival is an initiative of Paradis Urbain, a Canadian registered charity, whose greater mission is assisting individuals, who, due to their mental illness, are having difficulty moving forward and recovering their lives. Recognizing the power of creative expression as a catalyst that inspires Montreal citizens to take action, Paradis Urbain, through the Au Contraire Film Festival, strives to dispel stereotypes and reduce the stigma surrounding mental illness.

Winter is the time when connection matters most. At UP House, we work every day to end isolation for adult living with mental health challenges by offering members a place to return to—a place where they can build meaningful relationships, contribute to daily work, and feel part of a supportive community.
But right now, one of the most important parts of our community needs your support: our professional kitchen.

Our kitchen equipment is several years old, and cooking is a central part of our program. For 15 years, UP House has been a place where members prepare meals, learn cooking skills, and gather around food—a grounding and healing part of their day.

Today, we’re facing more repair and replacement issues than ever before. A functioning kitchen is essential for:
Preparing 3500 meals a year
Serving a daily population of up to 25 members
Supporting members to learn, grow, and connect

This Giving Tuesday, we’re asking our community to come together to raise $20,000 to repair and relaunch our Kitchen Program.

Your gift will help us:
Fix essential equipment
Replace what can no longer be repaired
Continue providing a safe, warm, welcoming kitchen for members
Ensure fresh daily meals that nourish both body and confidence

With your support, we can bring warmth and nourishment back to the heart of UP House 👉 https://paradisurbain-en.crowdchange.ca/92382
Together, we can keep our kitchen—and our community—thriving.
