I have had the wonderful experience of being The Fighter Scholarship Winner for the past three years now and I am so grateful for The Quell Foundation. They have helped me reach my goals and have taught me to shoot for the stars!
The Quell Foundation has had a lasting impact on my life! As a doctoral student in clinical psychology it is very affirming to know there are foundations and non-profits who truly care about the well-being of students especially their mental health.
They are doing so much for the mental health community. Their approach to mental health and the organization is simply one of a kind. The education, the dedication and how they treat people they work with..I personally couldn’t be more proud to support and be apart.
The Quell Foundation is creating awareness and access for the community as a whole. Quell is at the forefront of change. Change for individuals with mental health issues, change for individuals who have family with mental health issues and change within the first responder community. I am extremely proud to support The Quell Foundation.
I am a scholarship recipient of the Quell Foundation. All this organization has done for me made it possible to get an education. I was grateful to be heard, and feel supported by their cause!
This is by far one of the best non-profits I have ever had the pleasure of working with. I was a three-time scholarship recipient from them. Their generosity is only out-matched by their kindness. In my final year in the scholarship cohort, my school gravely messed up, and lost the check. As you can imagine, I was stressed to the hilt when my school basically said too bad so sad... well, the folks over at quell took the wheel for me and fixed the problem to the point where I got a personal apology from the president of the school. Truly an outstanding nonprofit that does good work for decreasing the stigma of mental illness and growing a nation of emerging leaders who will be/are equipped to take on the hardest issues.
I was a quell foundation survivor scholarship recipient for 2 years. I enjoyed my time being connected with the foundation and with other people who prioritize mental health as much as I do. I loved all the events and special opportunities I had as a result of Quell.
I am so happy I had the chance to become involved with The Quell Foundation. Their mission is to lift the mask on mental illness, to hold open conversations on the struggles many people don't talk about. I felt incredibly lucky to receive a scholarship for my education in psychology. Kevin is an incredible human being and makes the effort to get to know everyone within his foundation and the students he supports. This foundation is very special to me and I am very grateful for it's amazing team.
Quell is a fantastic and helpful foundation who makes sure its mission is carried out to a "T" and its resources and good work impact as many as possible.
I recently found out about the The Quell Foundation. As a parent of two adult children with mental health issues, I wish I found about the Quell Foundation earlier. As those of you who experienced any family member or friend struggle with mental health knows, it is difficult for the individual to talk about it or even ask for help from the closest people in their lives. Thank you The Quell Foundation for breaking the barrier regarding the stigmatism on mental health.
I learned about this nonprofit towards the end of 2022 and came to find as a whole, this foundation is one of the most authentic, open-arms, driven and caring I’ve been involved with. Their messaging, work & care, presentation, and events are empowering and gives hope to the future of removing the stigma around mental health and addiction. The appropriate resources to access mental health services and trainings provided is also beneficial! thrilled to be supporting this foundation!
The Quell Foundation has helped my daughter and so many students like her by giving her a scholarship to help her pay for college. It’s difficult for any student to attend college, let alone students suffering from a mental health challenge, so our family is super grateful for all that the foundation has done for her. Thank you Quell!!!
The Quell Foundation is a wonderful organization run by a dedicated team of caring and empathetic people who know how important it is to create a safe space to discuss mental health issues. Thank you Quell for everything you do!!
I'm incredibly thankful to The Quell Foundation for their support in helping me pursue my graduate degree. I achieved the Bridge the Gap Scholarship, which allowed me to continue my work as a mental health clinician. The Quell Foundation's efforts to bring mental health awareness to colleges, universities, and the public is significant and has impacted many individuals personally and professionally. I believe the foundation's work has consistently allowed for community building and embracing shared values in pursuit of creating meaningful messaging around such an important aspect of our livelihood.
The quell foundation has changed my life, as well as my family’s life. The quell foundation offered me a community full of support after being diagnosed with bipolar disorder. They connected my family with other families on similar journeys, and made us all a little less afraid of the uncontrollable and unknown. Above all, Quell gave me a place to share my story and find my voice! I am forever grateful for the incredible work they do.
I have been a Quell Foundation Bridge the Gap scholarship recipient for four year, they have supported my journey towards becoming a Clinical Mental Health Counselor and I am so grateful. Aside from financial support, the work that The Quell Foundation does is so important, Quell is a forward thinking organization dedicated to removing the stigma around mental health, supporting first responders, and is an inclusive organization. The Quell Foundations contribution to wellness and support of mental health is broad and far-reaching, ranging from their documentary Lift the Mask: Portraits of Life with Mental Illness, to providing scholarships to students in every state ! The Quell Foundation has supported my growth as a future mental health counselor and as a junior board member! What a fantastic organization!
I am so grateful for the Quell Foundation! I have been a scholarship recipient since 2018. Not only the scholarship money but also the support network that Quell provides helped me through my college experiences. I am so lucky and proud to be part of such an amazing community fighting the stigma surrounding mental health.
Quell has an incredibly inspiring origin story and continues to be a quality organization with which I'm proud to be associated. They care deeply about their employees, board members, and scholarship recipients, and are doing life-changing work in the mental health field.
I have been a scholarship recipient of the Quell Foundation since 2018 and the agency's avid, tangible work to democratize mental health is what fostered my passion to become a mental health counselor today. The diversity of skills and intrests in Quell's massive network is one of its greatest strengths; the Foundation has made major strides in several different fields on behalf of mental health awareness and are empowering the next generation of mental healthcare proffesionals. Moreso than any other foundation, Quell put's its money where its mouth is. Since 2016, the Foundation has given more than $2.6 million in scholarships in students across the country! It's an honor to be a part of this amazing work as a scholarship alumnus and current junior-board volunteer.
Love love LOVE the Quell Foundation. I was grateful to be a scholarship recipient four years ago and have been even more rewarded to involve myself more with the foundation, including speaking at the annual Masquerade Ball to share my own story of mental health and as a brother of a suicide victim. Quell does such a wonderful job bringing together people’s voices and inspiring so many in their efforts to remove the stigma.
The Quell Foundation has made a huge impact in my life! After receiving the Fighter Scholarship, I have felt much less alone and more supported in all my endeavors. The work that this organization does is incredible and especially necessary in today's difficult times. I am incredibly grateful to have the Quell community in my life and will continue to be an advocate for mental health, inspired by Quell and its people!
The Quell Foundation came into my life after I received the Fighter Scholarship. Since then I have gained the courage to be open about my mental illness. I am even minoring in Psychology because of the inspiration of the Quell Foundation.
This organization has not only supported me financially but has also supported me and many others mentally. The Quell Foundation truly cares about the mental health of everyone they can reach and I absolutely love everything they stand for and love getting the chance to be a part of it.
The Quell Foundation is a phenomenal organization dedicated to removing the stigma around mental health! I first became involved with Quell in the summer of 2020 as an intern for them, and am currently one of the Junior Board members. The Quell Foundation has taught me the importance of asking questions revolving around mental health, as well as being open to talking about my mental health more! The Quell Foundation has done amazing work so far, ranging from their documentary Lift the Mask: Portraits of Life with Mental Illness, to providing scholarships! The Quell Foundation has done so much for me and everyone else, and I am extremely grateful for them.
I've been fortunate enough to receive a scholarship through Quell for the past two years. However, I've been even more fortunate to be able to be an intern for the foundation and become a member of their Junior Board. The Quell Foundation has become a huge support system for me and allowed me to lift my mask. I will forever be grateful for all the foundation has done for me and I know they have had such a major impact on more lives than they will ever know.
I was fortunate to not only receive a scholarship from the Quell Foundation, but also to be given an opportunity to be part of their Junior Board. The Quell Foundation is incredibly supportive of its scholarship recipients, which I am incredibly grateful for. Furthermore, the foundation is full of wonderful, hard-working people who are all striving together to break down the stigma surrounding mental illness.
Quell came into mine and my family’s life at a time where we needed support. My little sister had recently been diagnosed with bipolar disorder and Quell provided cheerleading, support, and advocacy that we desperately needed. They even gave my sister and mom a platform to share their stories without fear of being stigmatized. We owe a lot to Quell and I’m constantly in awe of how they are able to continuously stay true to their mission despite their unbelievable growth over a short period of time.
The Quell Foundation has been a foundation that has impacted me personally! I am lucky to be a recipient of one of the scholarships they hand out but what has been more beneficial to me is the contact and connections the foundation make with everyone they come into contact with to make that individuals life shine!
I first became involved with The Quell Foundation when I was chosen as a scholarship recipient for their “Bridge the Gap” scholarship. This scholarship allowed me to take an extra class in equine assisted therapy, which in turn allowed me to be certified through my university in this specialty. Since then, Quell has provided me with numerous opportunities to grow and continue working with them on their mission to end the stigmas of mental health. I am forever grateful for Quell and all of the amazing work they do!
I will always be thankful for Quell. From granting me generous scholarships for college and mental health treatment to giving me professional experience working with their Junior Board, I am so grateful for the opportunities Quell has given me. Because of Quell, I have had the support and motivation to keep working hard despite my mentality telling me I couldn’t. I will be finishing my Bachelor’s degree this spring, and I am so thankful for the experience, support, and financial help Quell has given me over the years.
The Quell Foundation plays an integral and impactful role in public health and public safety. As an advocate for first responders, veterans and law enforcement, my experiences with Quell are exemplary of the foundation's commitment and dedication to mental health parity, community and human rights in a rapidly evolving online landscape. The Quell Foundation's mission is imperative to fostering preventative care strategies, successful outcomes, organized outreach, and meaningful clinical research outfits for the identification and humane interventions for mental health crises including self-harm, traumatic brain injury (TBI), vicarious trauma (VC), and PTSD, and suicide - far reaching traumas that not only affect the lives of first responders and combat veterans, but all of us.
