In 2014, we set out with a simple yet ambitious goal: help youth with severe and persistent mental illness transition from adolescence to adulthood.

So how did we decide to help? By throwing a party: Bash4Guild.
The purpose of the bash is twofold.

First, we are raising money that will directly benefit the youth services of Guild Incorporated, called Equilibrium, (EQ). This service team works exclusively with youth in our backyards throughout the Twin Cities, therefore the results will be tangible and observable to our community.

Second, we want to spread the message that mental illness is nothing to be ashamed of. In fact, it is much more prevalent than most imagine, afflicting one in 17 adults and one in 10 children. Let’s all join together and smash through the stigma that permeates around mental illnesses. Countless individuals and families will be profoundly altered for the better as a result.

However, none of this is possible without you.

So now is your chance to show your support! Please attend the Bash4Guild and learn more. Then spread the word and let’s beat this together.

With earnest sincerity,

NIK & MATT
