In an effort to aid in maintaining one’s mental health during this global pandemic, The Tupac Amaru Shakur Foundation launches phase 1 of “The Healing Tank Project.”
This project will build a database of donors for additional grass root fundraising initiatives/programs which will provide data and success stories that will serve as the foundation for solicitation of additional funding, through grants to support the growth of and execution of additional phases of the “Healing Tank Project.”
The campaign will remain active until Tupac Shakur’s birthday, June 16, 2020. Supporters can text SHAKUR to 44321 to donate.
The ‘Giving Tuesday’ partnership with The Boris Lawrence Henson Foundation consisted of a Matching Gift campaign to support free access to Mental Health Therapy in the response to the COVID-19 crisis.
These two organizations will continue to provide support to essential workers, first responders, health care providers, doctors, individuals, families and youth who are navigating stressful situations, learning how to cope with major lifestyle changes, battling mental-health conditions while in isolation, and/or struggling with substance abuse, during this pandemic.
“It is my belief that in order to honor our ancestors and ourselves, we must look inwards; identify and interrogate the root causes of our traumas. What we as an organization wish to offer are observable steps to reach these goals and we are happy to partner with the Boris Lawrence Henson Foundation to make a difference within the mental health community. I believe we are worth the effort” – Sekyiwa “Set” Shakur
By joining the movement, your gift will provide free emergency virtual therapy sessions with trained therapist(s) to address specific needs that will help cope with stress and address trauma due to Covid-19.
