Mission Statement

Welcome to Finesse Our Minds, a PGM-focused nonprofit addressing our young humans’ mental health challenges. Our goal? Shatter stigmas, provide resources, and empower young humans through community-building and peer support. United, we'll ensure no one faces their journey alone. Disclaimer: PGM stands for People of the Global Majority People of the global majority include those who are indigenous, Black, Asian, Latinx, and mixed-race, among others, and make up the majority of the world's population. Many people of the global majority have been historically and presently subjected to discrimination, racism, prejudice, and violence, which can impact their daily lives, mental health, and overall well-being. It is essential to create inclusive and equitable spaces that recognize and honor the diversity and richness of the global majority - this is what we are here for!

Description

• Finesse Our Minds is a non-profit organization founded in May 2019 by a millennial, L.Finesse Humxn, who realized the importance of spreading awareness and preventing the negative effects of dark thoughts after surviving multiple suicide attempts.
• It's natural for people to experience dark or negative thoughts from time to time - and we encourage owning our feelings! However, if these thoughts become persistent and intrusive, they can impact our mental health and well-being.
• L.Finesse’s personal experience with dark thoughts has inspired the organization's mission to promote awareness and education on the reality of dark thoughts and their negative effects (such as mental health struggles and suicidal/self-harm tendencies) in young people worldwide and empower them to transform their lives through constant peer support and life-saving resources.
