The purpose of the Lift the Mask Club is to reduce the stigma of mental health illnesses. It also aims to increase awareness and to seek solutions to the many problems related to mental health in our country. We have biweekly meetings and provide opportunities for club members to openly discuss issues, stories, and other aspects related to mental health. We will provide resources (hotlines, websites, organizations) to the members of our club that relate to that topic of the meeting. We also plan to have events across campus such as yoga, dog petting, and other events that will reduce stress and promote positive mental health. The club is sponsored by the Quell Foundation, who was created by PSU alumnus, Kevin Lynch. The Quell Foundation provides scholarships for students affected by a mental health illness and aims for these students to advocate and spread more awareness about mental health in their collegiate communities. We will encourage our club members to advocate and apply for scholarships for the Quell Foundation as well. Feel free to join our GroupMe: https://groupme.com/join_group/88633968/cWy0RceL
