MENTAL WELLNESS MATTERS
No one should have to manage their mental health all alone. Art With Impact uses creativity and film to inspire social acceptance of issues like depression, anxiety, eating disorders and other mental health issues rarely discussed openly in our culture, building much-needed support and encouragement for everyone.
By supporting AWI you are helping to:
- Directly combat the shame and isolation that prevents young people from reaching out for help when they notice symptoms of mental illness
- Facilitating early intervention for mental health issues by normalizing the topic and facilitating grounded, realistic conversations about mental health issues
- Create a network of filmmakers and artists who powerfully challenge the status quo around mental illness
Donate today to join this powerful ecosystem of change.
Here’s what some of our workshop participants have said:

- “This event helps every student. The ones that need help. But it also helps the students learn about mental health problems and how to send a message through a video.” – Student, Garey High School, Spring 2016
- Resourceful, inspiring and a good way to learn about mental health without feeling uncomfortable – Student, CSUSM, Fall 2015
