Blue Boy Foundation raises awareness of mental health issues, and raises funds for various global mental health charities and initiatives.
Blue Boy Foundation was founded in 2018 by the musician Lauv (Ari Leff), to destigmatise asking for help with mental health issues and raise awareness of mental illnesses. It also raises funds for international mental health initiatives and organisations, such as Teen Line, Beyond Blue and Mind HK. Blue Boy Foundation partnered with Microsoft to create My Blue Thoughts, an anonymous platform for sharing thoughts and feelings (the platform exists online and in physical booths during Lauv’s tours). Blue Boy Foundation also hosts ‘Breaking Modern Loneliness,’ a series of online and in-person discussions about mental health.
