A MESSAGE FROM Patsy’s Fundraising Page
Hi everyone! This year, I refound my love of running and am both shocked and excited to say that I will be running the 2024 TCS NYC Marathon!! I feel extremely grateful for the opportunity to do so through fundraising for an organization like Minding Your Mind.
Minding Your Mind’s primary objective is to provide mental health education to students in kindergarten through college, and to the adults in their communities. Their goal is to end the stigma and destructive behaviors often associated with mental health issues. By increasing help-seeking behavior, Minding Your Mind programs move away from crisis-based response to prevention through education.
Through my experiences working in the field of mental health, it is abundantly clear to me how important programs like this are.
The majority of Minding Your Mind’s programs are provided on a donate-as-able basis to the schools or organizations requesting them. Each individual program costs Minding Your Mind approximately $500 plus overhead. While hosting groups are invited to make a donation to Minding Your Mind, we do not decline presentations due to an inability to pay. Because of this policy, most of Minding Your Mind’s financing is derived from fundraising events, personal donations, and charitable grants. Your donation can change — and save — lives. Visit our website to learn more and bring a program to your community: www.mindingyourmind.org
Thank you all so much for your support!!!
