The Family Support Foundation for Mental Illness exists because there is such a great need to improve the lives of so many of our friends, our parents, our children, and our brothers and sisters who face the challenges of mental illnesses themselves or struggle to support a loved one.
The suffering that mental illnesses cause, particularly for young people,
is an issue that rarely gets the attention or support it deserves. Many
other charitable causes capture public sympathy and compassion. Sadly,
mental illness is too often stigmatized, feared, and misunderstood.
The Family Support Foundation for Mental Illness is dedicated to the
belief that we all should help those suffering feel a little less alone,
a little less invisible, a little less like no one understands and no
one cares.
Our mission is to support individuals and families coping with mental illness primarily through fundraising and awareness initiatives.
• We raise needed funds through our own fundraising and fundraising events and we support the fundraising events of other non-profit organizations that share our goals and have been strong leaders on mental health issues.
• We increase awareness through public service announcements, events and speaking engagements, educating lawmakers and the media, and internet-based outreach though our web site and online social networks.
Please support us with a tax deductible donation. Your generosity will make an important difference for individuals and families who truly deserve our support.
