Steel Smiling Beams to Bridges Fundraiser
This campaign will help us raise funds for our Beams to Bridges Mental Health Training Program.
About the project
Steel Smiling bridges the gap between black community members and mental health support through education, advocacy, and awareness.
Join us as we support the costs for 20 black adults in our Beams to Bridges Mental Health Training Program, which will launch this September with our Suicide Awareness Month activities.
The Steps
September: Beams to Bridges program launch and Suicide Awareness Month activities
October, November, and December: Beams to Bridges program sessions and End of Year Celebration Event
January through May: Beams to Bridges Sessions, Mental Health Awareness Month activities, and Program Graduation
Why we‘re doing it
We improve accessibility, reduce stigma, and activate neighborhood champions. Our experiences make mental health welcoming, informal, and culturally-sensitive for black people.
