This is Me Wellness Tour,

About the event

The I’RAISE Wellness Tour is a community-based initiative designed to bring mental wellness, social-emotional learning, and empowerment experiences directly to youth and families. The tour creates safe, engaging environments where young people can explore their identity, build confidence, and develop tools to support their emotional well-being.

Through interactive workshops, immersive wellness activities, and exposure to positive role models, the initiative addresses the growing mental health needs facing youth — particularly those in underserved communities with limited access to supportive resources.

The Wellness Tour operates as both a prevention and empowerment model. It focuses on early intervention, resilience-building, and strengthening protective factors such as connection, purpose, and community support. Each tour stop serves as a catalyst for ongoing conversations around mental health, leadership, and personal growth.

Parents, educators, and community stakeholders are also engaged to ensure that the impact extends beyond the event and into homes, schools, and neighborhoods.

Why should you sponsor?

Supporting the I’RAISE Wellness Tour is an opportunity to invest directly in the mental health, wellness, and future success of youth and families while gaining meaningful brand visibility and community recognition.

Direct Impact on Youth & Families

The tour provides free wellness workshops, mental health resources, creative arts activities, and essential supports to underserved communities. Sponsors help remove barriers to care and create safe spaces where young people can thrive.

(This aligns beautifully with your mission, Katherine, especially with the Integrative Mental Wellness and youth programming you lead.)

Champion Mental Health & Prevention

By sponsoring the tour, organizations demonstrate leadership in addressing youth mental health, stress, bullying prevention, self-care, and emotional well-being — issues affecting schools and communities nationwide.

High-Visibility Brand Exposure

Sponsors receive recognition through:

• Event marketing and flyers
• Social media campaigns
• On-site signage and vendor tables
• Press mentions and community outreach
• Inclusion in post-event reports

This positions sponsors as trusted community partners.

Meaningful Community Engagement

Unlike traditional advertising, sponsors interact directly with families, educators, and youth. This builds authentic relationships and brand loyalty.

Association With Innovation & Creativity

The tour uses arts, interactive workshops, and hands-on experiences to teach wellness — making it a unique, uplifting event sponsors are proud to support.
