Letters to Strangers

Mission

Letters to Strangers is the largest global youth-for-youth mental health nonprofit, seeking to destigmatize mental illness and increase access to affordable and quality treatment through therapy-informed letter-writing, science-based peer education, and grassroots advocacy.

What We Funded

Through a youth-written chatbot curriculum and an online letter exchange platform powered by youth-trained AI moderation, we empower young people to use AI empathetically and intentionally to build - rather than replace - real human connection.
