As I posted back in January, today is Bell's Let's Talk Day. Bell is donating $0.05 for every text, long-distance call, and re-tweet of @Bell_LetsTalk http://letstalk.bell.ca/resources/media/sections/media/press/BLTD_queens_EN.pdf
Last year they raised over $3.3 million - and they're hoping to break it this year.
The main purpose of Bell's Let's Talk Day is to do exactly that - start the conversation about mental illness. I wrote about the stigma of going public with a mental illness back in September of 2011:

So if you're a Bell customer - send a text. Or two. Or three. Call someone. If you've got Twitter, re-tweet the @Bell_LetsTalk message. Let's make this year's Let's Talk Day a success!
