Donate Today. Transform Tomorrow.

One in 3 families is affected by either mental illness or substance use disorder. Supporting a loved one struggling with one or both of these diagnoses is difficult enough. Imagine doing so with no or few financial resources. In 2017, Freedom House created The Cornerstone Fund, a community response to the lack of affordable behavioral health care. The Cornerstone Fund provides the foundation for sound mental health by funding services for individuals and families with little or no financial means. Your support provides hope and health to thousands who cannot afford the mental health services they need.
