What would happen if people took time to do good for another person,
a family, a community?
The Outpost believes the best change for good happens when we as individuals serve others in need. For The Outpost this has taken shape in a number of ways.
One of the places we have learned we can do good is for students in our community. More than 60% of students are suffering with significant mental health concerns. That is three times the number of adults over the age of 25!
What can we do to make the biggest impact?
We can build relationships with students who are disenfranchised, lonely, struggling with family situations, bullying, and other experiences that significantly impact the mental health of any student.
How do we do this?
We work with local school counselors to be connected with students who would benefit from a friend. The Outpost is committed to building healthy relationships with these students, providing resource connection and being a listening ear for students in need.
How can you help?
The Mugs for Mental Health campaign is set to raise $5,000 to help The Outpost meet needs of a minimum of 30 students with whom we connect in the next year.
The first 180 people giving $20 or more will receive a Mug for Mental Health as part of their Thank You.
There are 3 steps we invite you to take as you join us in supporting students:
- Give your gift of $20 or more right now
- Consider volunteering with us as we serve students in our communities
- Share this opportunity with at least 5 friends who you know have a heart to serve students.
Thank you for helping us serve students across Arapahoe and Jefferson Counties this next year!
