Supporting Mental Health Programs And Nonprofits
As part of our mission, Kicking The Stigma helps raise and distribute funds to nonprofits that make a lasting impact in the mental health sector. All donations to our organization go directly to programs and projects that raise awareness around mental health disorders and increase access to evidence-based mental health care in Indiana and beyond.
Since inception, our Action Grant Program has supported more than 60 local and national nonprofits, empowering them to combat the mental health crisis, advocate for greater acceptance, and connect people with the treatment they need to thrive.
Starting in 2025, the Kicking The Stigma Action Grant Program will now feature two separate grant opportunities.
Legacy Action Grant
The Legacy Action Grant is offered to select organizations Kicking The Stigma is looking to engage with in a more strategic way. Organizations will be contacted by a Kicking The Stigma representative for this opportunity.
Community Action Grant
The Community Action Grant is open to organizations looking to receive up to $25,000 in funding. Organizations must be a registered 501c3 and submit an interest form for their program that aligns with one of our five focus areas for funding.
