The Mission

Defining the Blueprint for Mental Wealth.

Brother’s Brunch Toronto (BBTO) is a strategic alliance between Registered Clinical Counsellor Bernard Piprah and OOTech Inc. (OOLoop) founder Didier Dorelien. Together, they have architected a groundbreaking framework for collective resilience, merging clinical expertise with social technology to address the silent crisis of isolation; a challenge that carries profound social and economic costs for Black men. By facilitating culturally collectivist 'Story Circles,' BBTO provides a physical sanctuary where personal narratives are reframed and mental health is treated as a high-value, investable asset.

We offer more than an event; we provide exclusive access to a curated gathering of Black male professionals, entrepreneurs, and community leaders; men who influence culture, spending, and conversation. As an in-person extension of OOLoop's social wellbeing vision, BBTO empowers these high-value individuals to bridge the gap between digital support and real-world brotherhood, fostering a sustainable, daily habit of resilience and mental longevity.

A Legacy of Trust | The Vancouver Movement

From a Local Conversation to a National Movement.

Brother’s Brunch Vancouver was born to address the isolation and lack of visibility for Black men. By grounding the experience in clinical expertise and cultural safety, we achieved:

  • 100% Sold-Out History

    Confirming a deep, underserved hunger for spaces that allow for total transparency.

  • Voices of Impact

    From activists to cultural icons, we have hosted speakers who model vulnerability as the ultimate form of strength.

  • Cultural Integrity

    Partnering with organizations like Hogan’s Alley Society to ensure our work is rooted in the history and resilience of the community.

National Validation | The CBC Feature

A Story of Connection, Documented for the Nation.

The impact of this work was captured in a dedicated CBC Creator Network documentary.

  • The Narrative: The film explores how clinical counsellor Bernard Piprah is reshaping what it means to be "seen" as a Black man in Canada, shifting the lens from trauma to proactive wellness.
  • The Authority: This national exposure provides our partners with a foundation of credibility and visibility that few local community initiatives can offer.
The OOLoop Edge | Extending The Mission.

Feel Better, Together

OOLoop is the vital digital extension of the Brother’s Brunch mission that ensures the healing and connection found in the room does not evaporate once the event ends. While the brunch provides a physical sanctuary for immediate breakthrough, OOLoop serves as the sustainable outlet where vulnerability is transformed into a daily habit of resilience. By bridging the gap between real world brotherhood and digital support, the platform allows men to continue unburdening their thoughts and measuring their mental wealth in a private environment.

  • Precision Mood Tracking: Attendees are empowered to unburden their thoughts before they become heavy by capturing daily experiences through intuitive journaling. This process identifies emotional patterns and transforms the reclaimed narrative into a measurable portfolio of mental wealth.
  • Intentional Social Wellbeing: The platform replaces toxic social media with a digital sanctuary of trusted brothers. This support network fosters genuine interaction and amplifies community resilience, ensuring that the brotherhood built in the room remains active and accessible in a safe and private environment.
  • The Intelligent AI Assistant: A private AI assistant unearths deep personal insights by listening and offering comfort. It takes approved actions to improve daily peace, such as sending mood lifting prompts or recommending specialized wellness strategies tailored to the specific blueprint of each individual.
  • The Global Wellbeing Marketplace: The marketplace connects men with vetted wellness professionals and curated treatments. This provides a direct path to mental longevity through specialized programs and products that address specific human needs, turning shared vulnerability into actionable and sustained growth.
