Support - FGIP

How to support our organisation?

Mental Health in Human Rights is a non-endowed, project-based foundation. In the interests of the people we serve, GIP also seeks to keep its operating budget low, while simultaneously ensuring the quality of its operations. Because we do not currently have an endowment, we are dependent on charitable donations and project funds. We welcome your support, both large and small!

Expertise and In-kind Support

Human Rights and Mental Health-FGIP and its projects often benefit from pro-bono or reduced rate services from mental health and financial professionals, for activities such as training, assessments and other project tasks.

We also very much welcome some kinds of in-kind support. Particularly useful are subscriptions to high-quality psychiatric journals or other publications or assistance in translating selected professional publications into various languages for broader reach.
