OPERATION OVERCOME
Is a movement championed by The Robb Nash Project and powered by Charitable Impact
One Fund. One Purpose. One Mission.
To support youth mental health in communities across Canada by bringing like-minded charities together for the common goal of ending teen suicide and fostering mental wellness.
How It Began
A severe car accident at the age of 17
between a semi truck and a car full of teens
left Robb Nash lying on an icy highway
he had no pulse, he was not breathing
medical interventions and surgeries brought him back to life
but left him with physical and emotional wounds
he was overwhelmed, angry, depressed
and suicidal
then one seemingly small act changed his trajectory
leading him to believe that bad things don’t happen for a reason
bad things happen with potential and he had a choice
he began writing music and performing with his band
soon he had three top 10 hits on the radio and a record deal
it took him from being suicidal to being significant
he became a Canadian rock star
it was more than he ever dreamed
but it wasn’t enough
so he tore up his record deal and just walked away
and he toured schools across Canada, telling his story
helping youth to OVERCOME their struggles
for the last 12 years, he's done just that
with his charity, The Robb Nash Project
engaging and empowering young people
through the power of rock music and authentic storytelling
saving more lives than just his own…
