The No Matter What Happens Project (NMWH) is a heartfelt tribute to our beloved niece, Hannah, who passed away in 2023 at the age of 25.

February 2024, NMWH partnered with a Canada-wide, non-profit foundation called Empower2Recover Foundation (E2R). Our focus is to assist Jay Barnard (E2R Executive Director and Founder) to bring live recovery events to communities across Canada giving hope to those dealing with trauma, mental health, and addiction. E2R live events bring people together to hear real stories and solutions from those who’ve been through it. The event is a day packed with speakers, live entertainment, resources, vendors, and a catered lunch.

Although NMWH is new, we have been busy! We have assisted with seven events to date, and more are in the works. The event we are most excited about is scheduled for April 25th, 2025, in Bridgewater, Nova Scotia – our hometown.

This event will be the first of its kind in Atlantic Canada.
