Hi, we're team Mission Possibles and we are here to raise $1,000 for Mental Health America (<<<clilckable link)
Mental illness is the silent hurt that most people don't discuss because it can't be seen, measured, or proven.
More than 1 in 5 U.S. adults experience mental illness each year, and more than 1 in 20 U.S. adults experience serious mental illness each year. (1)
What if there was a way to take the shame and stigma out of mental health and provide help that lasted?
We are passionate about generating awareness and funding for this innovative and pioneering non-profit organization.
MHA serves communities through their Emergency Hotline, advocacy for public policy, workplace wellness programs, community education and outreach, and mental health screening and research programs. They are an inclusive and multifaceted organization and we are thrilled to help champion the cause.
What makes MHA different? - From the Mental Health America Website:
- We are anchored in lived experience. We have been delivering public education, advocacy, and direct services through a lived experience lens since 1909.
- We are community-driven. We are a national organization grounded and guided by more than 140 community-based affiliates who provide direct service.
