To celebrate Jacob Anderson's 36th birthday, we are fundraising for Place2Be!
Last year, over 48 individuals donated to support children's mental health in honor of Jacob. We raised over $2,000, which Jacob matched to show thanks. Let's keep this energy up for year two!
Jacob is an ambassador for Place2Be, an organization that works to support children and youth’s mental health.
On talking about the agency, Jacob said:
When I was growing up, there were a lot of things that happened that I couldn’t quite understand…Place2Be provides a space for children at school where it’s completely safe, they can go talk to a professional about anything…I’m really passionate about what they do.
Listen to Jacob's recent interview with Place2be for Children's Mental Health Week:
One in five children and young people now have a diagnosable mental health issue. That’s six children in every classroom with a condition like depression or anxiety.
Place2Be is the UK's leading school-based mental health charity, providing support to children, families and school-based staff when they need it most.
Please help me support Place2Be’s vital work, and together we can make a real difference to children's mental health and ensure that children don’t have to face mental health problems alone. Learn more about Place2Be: https://www.place2be.org.uk/
