Your Impact
When Burgers & Bands began in 2017, the goal was to raise funds and awareness for the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention. Because of supporters like you, that mission has grown into a lasting impact across our entire community.
After becoming an official nonprofit in November 2018, we expanded our reach by providing grants directly to local schools to fund mental health initiatives at the level each school determines is most needed. Every school community is different — with unique populations, challenges, and priorities — and your generosity allows them the flexibility to address those needs in meaningful ways.
Your support also continues to extend beyond our local schools. Through Burgers & Bands, we have provided funding to:
American Foundation for Suicide Prevention
Warrior Music Foundation
NAMI – National Alliance on Mental Illness
Parenting for a Different World
Ellie’s Bus
As of February 2026, Burgers & Bands has contributed over $201,000 in donations and grants to support mental health awareness and initiatives.
And your impact goes even further. By attending, sponsoring, donating, and sharing our mission, you have helped shift the conversation around mental health in our community. You have helped make it more acceptable to speak openly, to check in on one another, and to ask for help.
Burgers & Bands is entirely volunteer-run, with no paid staff. That means more of every dollar raised goes directly to our mission and the schools and organizations we support — not to administrative overhead.
Because of you, awareness is growing. Schools are empowered. Organizations are funded. Conversations are happening. And lives are being changed.
