May is Mental Health Awareness Month
HACKENSACK, N.J., May 13, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- EBIN New York,
in partnership with the I Love You Foundation, a
non-profit organization dedicated to mental health support and gun
violence awareness, today launched a series of conversations and
community events to uplift women affected by gun violence and
mental health concerns.
May is Mental Health Awareness Month – the cornerstone of
raising awareness for millions of Americans living with mental
health issues. The inaugural event was held in Philadelphia at The Granary on Mother's Day,
and honored women who have lost their children to gun violence and
have lost their own mothers.
"EBIN is proud to partner with organizations that are seeking to
raise mental health awareness and address gun violence that
continues to adversely affect communities of color across
the United States," said
Danny Khym, chief operating officer
of EBIN New York. "In today's world, we are inundated with
information – for better or worse – and that affects our mental
health. The I Love You Foundation is using
technology to mobilize and create a safe space for women of color
to gather and support one another in the rapidly changing world
that we live in today."
"We want to provide a comforting and uplifting experience for
mothers who have been profoundly affected by mental health issues
and gun violence, or the loss of their mothers," said
Ming Leone, president and founder of
the I Love You Foundation. "Together, we can make a
difference in the lives of women who have faced unimaginable
challenges."
Ming Leone is a social media
influencer, entrepreneur, and rising rap artist. She has teamed up
with the Philadelphia 76ers on
philanthropic outreach, been honored by Philadelphia City Hall and worked with various
luxury brands to assist future business owners with resources and
opportunities to thrive.
The event included a series of heartwarming testimonials,
strategy sessions to end violence in communities of color, and a
celebration of the survivors in an effort to promote healing and
resilience within the community.
This is the first in a series of events that EBIN NY is sponsoring through its EBIN Cares
Initiative, a philanthropic collaboration aimed at empowering and
supporting initiatives that resonate with their core values and
uplift the communities they serve.
