The problem
Mental illness is a major crisis affecting 1 in 8 people worldwide. Depression alone impacts over 280 million people, and every 40 seconds someone dies by suicide.
Yet in low-income areas, up to 85% of people lack access to treatment.
FTC FOR MENTAL HEALTH
Every dollar counts to help us reach our goal of $2,000
The cause
Despite the scale of the need, mental health remains drastically underfunded. Vetted charities in this fund are working with local communities to deliver effective, evidence-based treatments at scale — bringing hope and care to people who would otherwise go without.
Our Mental Health Fund supports high-impact organizations providing life-changing support for people currently underserved by conventional healthcare systems.
Your impact
$1,000 raised for the Mental Health Fund improves approximately 29 lives through high-impact mental health programs.
This fund supports a dynamic range of interventions, including but not limited to the following:
Providing free group therapy for people experiencing depression through StrongMinds’ support-based model
Training and supporting lay health workers through Friendship Bench to deliver talk therapy in local communities
Teach people the skills to build happier, more fulfilling lives, through Action for Happiness' 750,000-strong global community
