Why Community Sponsorship?
Beyond Stigma works with over a dozen community-based organisations across Zimbabwe, Ghana, Rwanda, and Ireland. Each group delivers locally grounded programmes that support mental health and resilience through inquiry-based stress reduction (IBSR) and internal stigma work.
As a sponsor, you directly enable a community initiative to grow and thrive. Sponsorship typically spans 2–5 years and is designed as a collaborative partnership, tailored to your values and priorities.
