I chose to join a hike with HIKE for Mental Health to help stamp out the stigma of mental illness and to honor my dad, who struggled with his own inner demons much of his adult life. I want to stand on the summit and say his name into the wind both in honor of his struggles with mental health, as well as in spite of the negative impact it had on my life.
1 in 4 families is affected by mental illness.
HIKE for Mental Health is a recognized 501(c)(3) nonprofit founded on the vision of a world in which everyone, including those who suffer mental illness, can find the simple joy of living.
Our mission is to alleviate the suffering of those afflicted by mental illness, eliminate the associated stigma, and foster responsible use of wilderness trails.
As an all-volunteer organization, we distribute 100% of contributions raised by our hikes.
- 80% funds scientific research to understand and treat mental illness
- 20% conserves national wilderness trails
Your donations are tax-deductible to the fullest extent allowed by the IRS. Thank you for your support.
