Mental health is about more than a diagnosis—it’s the foundation for a strong, thriving community. It shapes every part of our lives, from providing a safe place to call home to receiving crisis response, therapy, targeted care, and the resources needed to heal and grow.

For the second year in a row, The Mighty Giveback is harnessing the power of live music to drive lasting impact for mental health. And we’re partnering with incredible Triangle nonprofits to make that happen.

This year’s partners serve three counties across the Triangle and span the spectrum of family and youth mental health services. Their plans include art therapy, culturally-responsive care, domestic violence and trauma support, groundbreaking research, and community-wide education via school system partnerships—all driving our shared mission to reduce stigma, increase access, and meet our neighbors where they are.

The Mighty Giveback will help to fund critical work in our community. Learn more about the Impact Partners’ initiatives below. Click on their logo to dive deeper into their organizations.
