Ways to Help Us Increase Our Impact

 Africans for Mental Health (AFMH)™ is a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to breaking the stigma of mental illness in the global African community. Through the I Am Africans for Mental Health™ Initiative, we bring together individuals with lived experience, caregivers, mental health professionals, advocates, and organizations—all committed to normalizing mental health conditions and promoting healing in our communities.

In honor of our 8th anniversary, we invite you to celebrate with us by making a gift of $8, $80, $800, $8,000, or more. Every dollar supports vital programs that promote healing, advocacy, and access to mental health services in our communities.

Together, we can continue building a compassionate and healthy global village—because mental health is community health.

This year, AFMH is proud to participate in several exciting giving campaigns. These opportunities allow you to multiply your impact and join thousands of others in strengthening mental health resources in our communities.

Your donation helps sustain and grow our programs, including:

• Behavioral Health Education
   
• Mental Health and Suicide Prevention Training
   
• Team Conquerors Program
   
• Public Awareness & Advocacy
   

All donations are 100% tax-deductible, and every gift—no matter the amount—has a meaningful impact
