Our Story, GLS Society

GLS Society for Health and Life is a Nova Scotia non-profit organization dedicated to improving health and quality of life in the Annapolis Valley. Through Country for the Cure and other community initiatives, we bring people together to raise awareness, support people going through cancer treatment, and make a positive difference for the Valley Regional Hospital Foundation. Our work is made possible through the generosity of donors, sponsors, volunteers, participants, and community partners, and we are committed to using this support responsibly to create meaningful impact in our community.

GLS Society for Health and Life

Our mission was born from a personal journey of resilience, health, and giving back. Inspired by Mike Reid’s experience as a double-lung transplant recipient, GLS is committed to supporting health, wellness, and the needs of our local community. Proceeds support the Valley Regional Hospital Foundation in the Annapolis Valley, Nova Scotia, helping provide support to individuals and families facing cancer treatment. This can include meals, travel expenses, and other personal needs that arise during treatment. Through fundraising events, music, and community initiatives, we bring people together to make a meaningful difference. From Mike's Country for the Cure Concert Series to Sandy’s Random Acts of Kindness.
