Mental Health Awareness Month Fund
Every year in May, Mental Health 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.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. 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, doing research, and educating in order to challenge myths, biases, and discrimination about what mental health is - and what it is not.

Juneteenth Fund
On June 19, 1865 -- a full two and a half years after the Emancipation Proclamation was issued -- news of the end of slavery finally reached Texas. Since then, Juneteenth, also known as Jubilee Day, Liberation Day, and Emancipation Day, has become a time to recognize and celebrate the culture, contributions, and achievements of African Americans. Early celebrations often served a dual purpose as political rallies to give voting instructions to newly freed enslaved peoples. However, in the early 20th century, economic and political forces led to a decline in Juneteenth celebrations due to state laws and amendments being passed that disenfranchised Black people and excluded them from voting, such as the Jim Crow laws. The Civil Rights Movement re-invigorated the holiday. In 2020, in the midst of several high-profile deaths of Black men at the hands of police, Juneteenth started to become more widely known and its significance particularly important. Systemic racism continues to plague the United States, and the struggle for true Black liberation continues to this day. Join us in supporting organizations that continue to work on dismantling white supremacy and eliminating systemic racism. The Juneteenth Fund is composed of nonprofits with missions that address these complex, pervasive relics of oppression through education, policy, advocacy, and access to quality healthcare and other direct services.

Martin Luther King Jr. Day Fund
The Civil Rights Movement of the 1960s, led by The Reverend Martin Luther King Jr., was a pivotal time in our nation’s history and has had far-reaching repercussions. Modern movements for racial justice and equality, like the Black Lives Matter movement, are extensions of the work that he started. MLK Day, celebrated nationally on January 15, is a day of service that celebrates the Civil Rights leader’s mission, life, and legacy. The holiday, often referred to as “a day on, not a day off,” is dedicated to volunteerism, encouraging people everywhere to reflect and take action in their communities. The call to action on this day is intended to empower individuals, strengthen communities, bridge barriers, create solutions for some of our most pressing social problems, and move us closer to Dr. King’s vision of a “Beloved Community.” Dr. King led the charge to demand the most basic of human rights -- civil rights -- and there are plenty of opportunities to contribute.

Alleviate and Eliminate Global Poverty Fund
Nobody needs to be told that poverty is a problem. 1.3 billion people live on under $1.25 a day and we all know the suffering this creates - children die, families starve, and students complete school unable to read a simple sentence. But it is possible to make a real dent in the problems that face the poorest people. Mulago looks for scalable solutions to poverty and funds them. We look for the best solutions in health, livelihoods, education, energy and conservation and fund the organizations that can deliver those solutions. We find and fund those organizations most able to create scalable impact for the poor in these priority areas. The health organizations Mulago funds save lives by bringing high-quality, cost-effective health care to the poor in Africa and Asia. We look for organizations that provide services that farmers need and that increase their incomes. The education organizations we fund help provide a quality education to poor people. Our job is to find the organizations best able to create change and give them what they need to do it.

Improve Education in the U.S. Fund
In the U.S., a student’s zip code and the color of their skin often determines if they will complete high school and be prepared for college entrance and completion, which in turn, is a key determinant for later life success as an adult. To make matters worse, the United States is facing its worse teacher shortage since the 1990s, and low-income schools are often disproportionately impacted. As a result, our public high schools are failing these students and need evidence informed practices to more effectively educate their students.
Mitigate Global Climate Change Fund
Climate is one of the defining issues of our century. The challenge threatens our environment, our well-being, and our children. Together, all of us are making decisions that will shape the planet for hundreds of years. Right now, it looks likely that we aren’t going to do enough, and that we might lock in a scenario of rising seas, powerful hurricanes, and famines. But it doesn’t have to be this way. There are opportunities to make a difference -- and many of them are overseas. Most of the world’s people live in developing countries, and we have a chance to shape industries and products from the very start. By helping countries embrace cleaner alternatives for economic growth, we have a chance to avoid pollution before it happens. This fund invests in several of the world’s leading organizations that are partnering with governments to drive innovation, avoid warming, and help families and communities gain access to food and energy.

Protect the World’s Land, Oceans, and Wildlife Fund
Humanity is putting immense pressure on the Earth’s resources, taking far more than the planet can in fact sustain. WWF’s Living Planet Report 2016 estimates that we are exceeding the Earth’s capacity by more than 60% – living as if we had 1.6 planets to support us. The CO2 produced by our reliance on fossil fuels is changing the climate, and changing the chemistry of the oceans, making them more acidic. Our demand for food and fiber is driving destruction of forests and marine ecosystems worldwide. We are squeezing out many of the other species with whom we share this planet – scientists report that we are entering the “Sixth Extinction” – meaning three-quarters of all species could disappear in the coming centuries.
World Oceans Day Fund
World Oceans Day, recognized annually on June 8, was established by the United Nations to both celebrate the beauty and mystery of the ocean, as well as to promote public interest in protecting, preserving, and sustainably managing its resources. The ocean covers 70% of the planet and produces at least half of the available oxygen; it is home to the vast majority of earth’s biodiversity, is a major source of food for billions around the world, and is a key driver of global economies. However, 90% of big fish populations are depleted, more than 50% of coral reefs are destroyed, and we are taking more from the ocean than can be replenished. Through a single donation to the Fund, you can support multiple organizations' initiatives working to protect our oceans and the life within them.
