Should the following Tier 4: up to $60,000 USD, 6 months vesting (1 month cliff) grant in the Community category be approved?

Abstract

Wanting to create a mental health hq as a central hub for people to find support, access materials, speak to professionals via discord calls or phone calls, meet other like minded people in a relaxing and safe location. Looking at starting with a 1x1 parcel then expanding.

I am hoping to help as many people as possible as i know mental health can be quite a challenge.

It will be run as a non for profit so any mana will go back into the staff, gain more resources, pay for land and host events for everyone.

mental health is not a joke and everyone deserves help and a safe place.
