A note from Selena Gomez
Founder of
Mental health is personal for me. I went a long time without the support I needed because I didn’t understand what I was feeling. After experiencing what seemed like endless highs and lows that would take me out for weeks at a time, I finally found the help to see what I was going through. But I’m learning every day that supporting my mental health is a journey. Every day isn’t perfect—not for me, not for anyone. And too many people don’t have access to the mental health resources and education they need.
That’s why I started the Rare Impact Fund. It’s a commitment to expand access to mental health services and education for young people everywhere. Because no one—regardless of age, race, gender, sexual orientation, or background—should struggle alone.
My biggest dream is to make a positive impact in this world. I hope that by sharing my own story and using my platform for good, we can empower more young people to address their mental health. Thank you for joining me on this journey.
XO,
Selena
