FAQ
What is Momentus?
Momentus is MQ’s regular giving programme. It gives people who care about mental health an easy way to make a lasting difference through research. Better mental health diagnosis, treatments and maybe even prevention are only possible through research. And funding this type of research on a regular basis is an easy and worry-free way to make a difference for the millions of people living with mental illness.
How does Momentus work?
It’s easy! You choose how much you’d like to contribute each month, provide your payment details, and your payment will be processed automatically. We’ll reach out to you occasionally through email with opportunities to take advantage of your member benefits. And you can cancel at any time.
What if I already give to MQ regularly?
Thank you, and welcome! You’re automatically a member of Momentus, and you’ll receive the benefits listed above. Make sure you’re signed up for email to receive your Momentus updates.
How does MQ use my gift?
MQ collects donations from people like you around the world, combining them into research grants and fellowships at many of the world’s leading universities. There, the brightest minds meticulously research mental illness and develop better understanding, diagnosis, treatments and, one day, maybe even prevention.
Why should I join Momentus?
Funding for mental health research has remained flat for a decade, yet as many as one in four of us experiences a mental illness each year. If we want better mental health outcomes for our friends, for our families, for ourselves — we have to start with research.
And through Momentus you can make an even bigger difference. For example, with a gift of just £10 per month, over the course of a year, you could cover the cost for one person to take part in a research study to help a new form of therapy to be developed, tested and ultimately become a new treatment.
Is there a minimum gift to join?
No. Every regular gift to MQ makes you a member of Momentus. Thank you!
