Mental wellness is central to EMF’s mission, which is why we’re proud to recognize Mental Wellness Month this January.

Athletes are taught to push through pain, stay strong, and never quit. But too often, that mindset makes it hard to speak up when something isn’t right.

EMF exists to change that narrative by taking down the stigma, encouraging open conversations, and reminding athletes that mental strength includes asking for help.

Mental wellness matters year-round, but January is an important reminder that building resilience, character, and support systems is just as critical as physical training.

We have an array of mental health resources available on our website, because support should always be within reach.

Inspired by the life of Eric Monday, a dedicated athlete who embodied perseverance, discipline, and heart, the Eric Monday Foundation (EMF) exists to support athletes beyond the competition.

EMF uses the values learned through sports- resilience, accountability, and personal growth, to break down the stigma surrounding mental health, especially among athletes who often feel pressure to stay silent.

Through awareness, conversation, and community, EMF helps athletes build strength both mentally and physically.

DOUBLE YOUR IMPACT THIS GIVING TUESDAY!

Today is more than a global day of generosity, it’s a chance to stand with athletes, families, and coaches who are impacted by mental health challenges every single day.

At the Eric Monday Foundation, our mission is simple and urgent: is to surrounding mental health by empowering coaches, supporting athletes, educating communities, and creating safe spaces for honest conversations.

We just reached a major milestone and have had over 5,000 coaches complete our Coach’s Guide to Mental Health Awareness, reaching and supporting over 100,000 young athletes nationwide. Your generosity fuels programs like this—and makes a real, measurable difference in the lives of young people.

On this Giving Tuesday, your support helps us:

📍Expand free mental health resources
📍Grow our training opportunities
📍Support more athletes and families
📍Strengthen community outreach and awareness

Every gift helps build a future where no athlete struggles in silence and today, your donations are doubled due to the match of a generous donor.

Help us continue the work. Help us .

We are deeply grateful for the incredible commitment you’ve shown to the Eric Monday Foundation in 2025. Your support fuels the programs that drive our mission to surrounding mental health and athletes.

This year, our Coach’s Guide to Mental Health Awareness reached a major milestone: we just surpassed 5,000+ coaches who have completed the training. If each coach works with just 20 athletes, that means over 100,000 young people are now supported by adults who can recognize, respond to, and reduce the stigma around mental health. 💛

This life-changing impact is possible because of YOU.

From now through November 30, 2025, ALL DONATIONS WILL BE MATCHED UP TO $10,000 thanks to two generous donors. This is your opportunity to make an even greater difference for the athletes, families, and coaches who depend on these resources.

Every contribution—big or small—helps us grow our programs, strengthen our community, and provide vital tools to those who need them most and to surrounding mental health. 𝗗𝗢𝗡𝗔𝗧𝗘 𝗧𝗢𝗗𝗔𝗬 and double your impact ✨ https://4agc.com/donate/takedownthestigma

🙏 Thank you for standing with us and helping create a stronger, more supportive future for all athletes. Let’s close out the year even stronger!
