“Our epidemic of loneliness and isolation has been an under-appreciated public health crisis that has harmed individual and societal health." -The U.S. Surgeon General

BLHF Joy Joints!

This transformative initiative is designed to rekindle the spirit of historic Juke Joints from the early 1900s, calling on community to gather, create space, and celebrate with a focus on healing, connection, and joy. In commemoration of World Mental Health Day on October 10, BLHF is spearheading a month-long celebration dedicated to countering loneliness, reigniting connections, and uplifting joy across the nation and the world. During these uncertain times, the Foundation's ambitious goal is to collectively amass 100,000 hours of joy and raise $1M towards mental health support to help address the heightened fear and anxiety experienced by our collective body. 

Join us in our efforts by helping us proclaim Joy Over Everything!
