What your donation will do:

Funds raised allow us the ability to provide an evidence-based peer-led mental wellness curriculum at no expense to schools. Donations will be used to sponsor national experts and mental health advocates to come to our schools to provide education to students, teachers, and administration to raise awareness of mental health issues and provide resources.

With the help from our donors we are fighting the silent epidemic.
