The Problem We're Addressing
Mental health challenges among middle and high school students are at an all-time high, many parents and teachers lack the tools to properly support them and the need for proactive, supportive educational programs has never been more urgent. Without proper education and resources, these issues can negatively impact academic success, emotional well-being, and future outcomes.
Our Solution
The 6 for 6 Mental Health Educational Program provides students, parents, and teachers with essential mental health resources, workshops, and support systems to better navigate these challenges. We aim to equip the entire community with the tools needed to support mental well-being, reduce stigma, and improve overall school environments.
This Giving Tuesday, we have set an ambitious goal to raise $5,000, and we need your help to reach it. Together, we can ensure that our students, parents, and teachers are equipped with the mental health education and support they deserve.
