Supporting Mental Health Students

 The global mental health crisis is a major issue impacting the entire world. The numbers are staggering.  Mental illness affects an estimated 950 million people worldwide, and is the leading cause of disability across all age groups. In addition, mental health issues are the leading cause of suicide, accounting for over 800,000 deaths per year. 

In recent years there is a clear increase in levels of stress and anxiety, as well as a rise in mental health disorders. The crisis is further complicated by the fact that there is a lack of access to mental health services in many parts of the world.  The world needs more mental health professionals to combat the crisis.

Our main objective is to raise funds and provide scholarships to those seeking to work in mental health related professions.  By supporting individuals early on, and helping to reduce financial burdens of entry, we hope to increase the mental health workforce.

In order to address the crisis, governments and other organizations also need to take steps to raise awareness, reduce stigma and discrimination, and increase access to mental health services. Ultimately, the global mental health crisis is a complex and serious issue, which requires an urgent and coordinated response from governments and organizations around the world.  

Our fundraising campaigns, events, volunteers, and donation collections allow us to support students looking to enter mental health related fields and provide lifelong services to meet the challenges of the crisis.  We will support anyone looking to help others and make a direct impact on countless lives.
