caulixtla 2,170 Posted June 3, 2019 Share Posted June 3, 2019 The Born This Way foundation just set up a program with a lot of schools teaching kids how to give mental health “first aid”. See https://www.today.com/health/mental-health-first-aid-inside-lady-gaga-backed-program-teens-t154454 The BTWF is the big reason why I’m such a huge Gaga stan. Indeed, I have a lot of those “Be Kind” shirts they sell at https://shop.bornthisway.foundation/ ... the only Gaga-related clothing I own, in fact.

More recently, they've given more specific examples of projects, but they often still throw with vague terms and concepts. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't wanna criticise or anything (criticising is bad on GGD!), but the foundation seems... kinda invisible to me, as if non-existing. Indeed, it is talked about and praised publicly, but I'm still wondering as to its achievements. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they work more like "Ecosystem" initiatives, where they primarily support regional-specific programs at individual institutions? 3 points in and ready for more Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had no doubt that all these corporate gigs were for the benefit of BTWF. They're making big moves all the time, it's just lowkey. Philanthropy should be humble.

TinyGa 394 Posted June 3, 2019 Share Posted June 3, 2019 The BTWF email list sends out lots of updates about what they're doing, and their blog has pretty regular updates too. They do a lot of research reports that inform their programming and make them public so other practitioners can make use of them. As a 501(c)3 nonprofit they have to report financials to the government and their tax statements are public. I think there's plenty of info out there showing that they're a legit nonprofit doing good work. (I don't think criticism is bad but repetitive tangential complaints and groundless negativity get boring.) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
