September Mental Health Awareness

September is Mental Health Awareness month and here at Connect Volunteering we want to respect and support those who suffer from any mental illnesses, no matter how big or small. To do this, we are making a video that shows support and love to those who suffer from mental health issues and we want you to be in it! Whether it be sharing your story or simply showing support, we want to include as many faces as possible and make sure those who watch this video feel loved and cared for. This video will be sent to numerous mental health organizations and hopefully shown to a large number of people struggling with mental health.

There are two ways you can be a part of our video. One is to come in person to one of two filming days we will hold. Here you can earn 2 service hours for participating in the video in person. The filming day details can be found below. The second way is to send in your story/message to us online. Please send all videos through email to management@connectvolunteering.org by the end of this event (9/30/2021). Through this, you can earn 1 service hour for participating.
