​Something meaningful is happening in our community, and you are among the first to hear about it. We are thrilled to announce the launch of the Be Healthy Within (BHW) Foundation, a grantmaking organization dedicated to advancing mental health awareness, emotional well-being, and meaningful connection.
 
We would love for you to be part of this from the very beginning. Our mission is simple but powerful: to bring people together through community events, support programs, and partnerships that advance mental health awareness, emotional well-being, and meaningful connection.

​Our Signature Event — Introducing the Chalk Festival
Our first major community event is already on the calendar, and we would love for you to be there. The BHW Foundation Chalk Festival transforms Oz Park in the heart of Lincoln Park, Chicago, into a vibrant canvas of creativity, color, and human connection, bringing together families, professional artists, students, and neighbors to create, celebrate, and strengthen community. Best of all, it's completely free and open to everyone.
There are so many ways to be part of it. Attend as a guest, join us as an artist, donate your time as a volunteer, make a lasting impact as a sponsor, or help shape the event from the ground up by joining our planning committee. However you choose to show up, we would love to have you!
Email [email protected] to learn more or get involved, and visit behealthywithin.com to stay up to date on all the latest developments. Every dollar raised goes directly toward BHW Foundation grants advancing mental health and emotional well-being.

This is just the beginning, and there is a place for you in this work. If you are passionate about mental health awareness, emotional well-being, and meaningful connection, the BHW Foundation welcomes you. We believe mental wellness grows through connection, and together, we are just getting started.
Don't wait to be part of something meaningful. Email [email protected] to learn more and get involved. Additional details, including a secure site for sponsorships and registration, will be announced shortly. 
And if this mission resonates with you, please share it. Forward this email, post it on social media, or simply tell a friend. The more people who know about the BHW Foundation, the greater our impact, and every connection starts with a conversation.
Together, we connect. Together, we create. Together, we give back.

Connection is the foundation of a healthy life.
