Give A Girl Wings
December kicks off our year-end fundraising campaign, starting with a donation matching program on December 1st – Giving Tuesday. Donate *on that day* and GlobalGiving will match a percentage of your gift!
Few things in this world have the healing power of music, just ask Izzy Jane. While Herizon’s mission is to give the next generation of female music makers a better chance at succeeding in a music-related career, the pandemic has revealed a secondary (yet critical) benefit of our programs: Improving Teen’s Mental Health. The pandemic has exponentially increased anxiety and depression rates with one teen help line stating it has seen a 50% increase in texts and calls since March 2020.
While this is devastating to hear, the good news is that research shows that listening to and creating music makes a positive difference. Programs like ours are essential for mental health now more than ever. Please help us expand our programs and reach as we enter 2021! DONATE HERE
