Every year in May, Mental Health Awareness Month provides a dedicated time to raise awareness about the realities of individuals living with mental illness and ways to manage and achieve mental wellness, while promoting early detection in our youth. The COVID-19 pandemic has had a profound impact on the mental health of people of all ages. In November 2020, the CDC reported that 44% of Americans were coping with either depression or anxiety, and our communities continue to feel those effects today. Now, more than ever, it is critical to reduce the stigma around mental health struggles -- because that stigma often prevents individuals from seeking help. Bright Funds has established the Mental Health Awareness Month Fund composed of pre-vetted nonprofits committed to raising mental health awareness. Through a single donation to the Fund, you will support a group of nonprofits that are providing direct services, conducting research, and educating the masses in order to challenge myths, biases, and discrimination about what mental health is - and what it is not. The composition of nonprofits in this fund is subject to change.

Since 2006, the month of May has been recognized as Jewish American Heritage Month, a dedicated time to recognize and celebrate Jewish achievements and contributions made to the United States in the arts, culture, academia, sports, medicine, governmental affairs, and so many more critical areas of our nation's history. The following pre-vetted organizations are celebrating the Jewish American experience through educational programming, artifact preservation, art and culture exhibitions/celebrations, and various other mediums to showcase the invaluable contributions so many Jewish figures have made to help the United States grow and prosper, all while honoring the richness of Jewish culture.

Memorial Day, observed federally on the last Monday in May each year, recognizes and honors those who have lost their lives serving in the United States military. Memorial Day is a day to extend our deepest gratitude towards those who have made the ultimate sacrifice in order to serve and protect their country. The following organizations are honoring those we have lost by paying tribute to fallen soldiers while also serving our veteran community and their families in a multitude of ways. Your donation to this Fund will help each of these organizations continue their collective missions of recognizing and honoring the sacrifices made by our nation's fallen military personnel, as well as the courage and bravery held by all military members, while supporting veteran communities around the country.

On May 16 a tornado swept through St. Louis, Missouri, beginning just outside Energizer's corporate headquarters and cutting a path of destruction through northern parts of the city with windspeeds of 150 mph. Our office is secure and our colleagues are safe, but thousands have been left without electricity and many homes have been destroyed. The scale of damage to neighborhoods and community centers promises a road to recovery that is long, costly and challenging. Energizer is working with local groups to provide batteries and portable lights to those who need them, but in times like this many of us want to know what we can do to help. The Energizer Giving Foundation can maximize the impact of your donations to organizations providing aid to those in the communities affected by the tornado.
