About World Mental Health Day
World Mental Health Day takes place every year on October 10 to spotlight mental health around the world, raise awareness of mental health issues and encourage efforts to support those experiencing mental health issues. Learn more about the current fundraiser from this blog post by Kathy Rocha, our MGB Research & Education and Art Task Force Volunteer.
Champion Youth Mental Wellness
At My Good Brain, we believe in the power of creativity to bring families together.
At one of our recent workshops, a mom shared that the event had become a special time for her family to bond, with both parents present and engaged.
Another parent mentioned how her typically shy daughter opened up and fully immersed herself in our friendship bracelet-making and card illustration session, surprising everyone with her enthusiasm.
These moments remind us that our workshops are more than just creative activities—they’re opportunities for children and their families to connect emotionally, socially, and creatively. By supporting our World Mental Health Day t-shirt fundraiser, you’re helping us continue to offer these meaningful experiences to more families.

We at My Good Brain are passionate about art because there are many mental health benefits to engaging in art-making. From self-expression, stress-relief, to improving one’s cognitive and social-emotional learning skills, there are many reasons to take up art-making no matter what age you are.
