Music fans are struggling but don’t seek help.

3 in 5 people who struggle with their mental health do not seek help for their issues. When they don’t:

  • people believe lies about themselves (because no one can tell them the truth about their worth)

  • people feel like their pain will last forever (because no one can speak the hope of their story to them)

  • people make choices others could have helped prevent (because no one can help them see and choose alternatives)

And when this happens:

  • suicide is the 2nd leading cause of death for people 10-34yo

  • over 100,000 deaths from overdose annually

HeartSupport uses music to reach these people and get them to seek help.

  • We’ve helped 50,000 people open up about their mental health struggles.

  • Every month, we help 250 start their mental health journey by talking about their struggles, many for the first time.

  • Every month, we help 30 people connect to deep, ongoing life change work through our peer mentoring program or connection to professional therapy.

👇 Testimonials

  • Someone wrote on an Instagram post: “I fantasize about the end of my life almost daily, and I wish I could articulate why.”

    After our reply, they wrote: “thank you for helping me articulate my feelings. It is extremely frustrating to not know “why do you feel this way?” And that is why I rarely talk about it. It is easy to forget that I don’t have to pretend my negative thoughts don’t exist. It normally comes out in the form of morbid humor. I hope you have someone to talk to the same way you responded to me.”

  • By meeting people where they are, we can reach people who aren’t opening up elsewhere. This person wrote, “I haven’t done anything like this, and past me would have never thought I would do something like this. I keep wanting to reach out to something or someone, but I don’t feel like I can talk to anyone. All my friends don’t even like me or want to talk to me. I feel like I’m alone. I just want it all to end.”

  • A user originally wrote about losing their father unexpectedly and the grief and guilt they experienced processing the pain. After our replies, the user wrote back, “Holy crap, you nailed everything. Reading this is bringing actual tears of relief and a sense that people get it.”

We partner with bands to reach their fans.

HeartSupport Fest

Part of the natural evolution of our work with bands to reach their fans and our work in the festival space was to create an event where mental health wasn’t just something that happened in one tent in a sea of other vendors, but something that was saturated through the entire venue.

Location
Orlando, FL

Year
02/18/23 to 02/19/23
