October’s partner is Solely Sunshine, founded by a 16-year-old in Southern California to help encourage and support people with OCD, anxiety, and other mental health conditions. It is estimated that 2% of the people in the world have OCD and 11% have a mental health condition.
Solely Sunshine uses encouraging words to overcome anxiety. Since the onset of Covid, OCD is more prevalent. Volunteers are asked to send letters of encouragement that are distributed to those in need of encouragement.
