Anime For Humanity is a 501©(3) charity non-profit dedicated to using Anime and Cosplay as a medium to challenge the stigma surrounding mental health. We attend conventions all over the nation to meet people face to face, start conversations that spark change, and hand out resources to anyone looking for support and community. We believe that Anime and Cosplay give us an opportunity to move people from silence to honesty, from isolation to community, from pain to hope and healing. Our vision is to use anime as a tool to create a world where mental illness is understood, effectively treated, and ultimately prevented. There are many who suffer from mental health issues silently. They might not be ready to reach out, know where to look for help, or find the courage to step into therapy. Our mission is to reach them and provide them with hope and the mental health resources they need. Taking time to understand their mental illness and celebrate what brings us together in conventions can be one of the most direct ways we can reduce social isolation and challenge the stigma surrounding mental health.
Echo is a mobile library, educational hub and pop-up community space for refugees, displaced and vulnerable people in Athens and the surrounding area. Our aim is not only to provide books in mother tongue languages to those most isolated but to act as a source of information, a facilitator of language and music classes, and a space for conversation, play and support. We operate in refugee camps and community spaces in Athens and the surrounding Attica area, loaning books in Arabic, Farsi, Urdu, Kurmanji, English, Greek, German, French and Turkish, as well as providing language learning resources and attempting to respond to the specific needs of each space we visit. Our goal is to allow displaced and vulnerable groups to access the resources that many of us take for granted. To allow each person to gain some autonomy back through personal reading and learning decisions. We hope to support people on their own journey, to enable individuals to make their own decisions. We support self study through helping students access online university courses, providing Greek lessons and language learning materials, and suggesting learning apps and classes around Athens. Our ethos is that time is valuable and that each person who is stuck waiting, in a refugee camp, on the street, in a squat, should not allow their time to be devalued. We welcome men, women, children, old and young, and hope to support each person in every way we can, to show respect and solidarity while encouraging personal growth through education.
