How MQ Works

Learn more about how MQ funds critical mental health research programmes.

Watch below to see how your gift creates life-changing mental health breakthroughs.

We strive to create a world where mental illness is better understood, diagnosed, treated and, maybe someday, prevented. Research is the first step towards making that a reality. That’s where your donation makes a difference.

For every gift that MQ receives, we funnel it to mental health research programmes at the world’s top universities, where mental illness is meticulously studied to gain a better understanding of it. This is our best chance for more effective treatments, faster diagnoses and better care for your loved ones. Help us make these life-changing breakthroughs.

Because mental health needs a champion.

Mental illness affects up to one in four of us, yet funding for this health crisis has stagnated. Your gift will change that by funding research into better understanding, diagnosis and treatment for years to come.
