He has joined a network of community leaders, volunteers, and professionals in their efforts to make the world a better place by improving living conditions and providing better access to essential resources for individuals and families in need. Some of the specific charities and organizations Vincent Mays has been involved in include:
Water Charities
The world is currently experiencing a global water crisis where hundreds of millions of people lack access to clean water and sanitation.
This has lead to severe health problems as well as setbacks in learning, professional work, the economy and the cycle of poverty as individuals are spending nearly all their time trying to gather water and seek safe sanitation. With access to clean and safe water, families and individuals have more time to take care of themselves and pursue opportunities that will help them lead happy, healthy, and successful lives.
Some of the organizations Vincent Mays has supported that are leading efforts to end the global water crisis include:
- Water.Org
- Charity: Water
- The Water Project
Disaster Relief Organizations
When disaster strikes, families, individuals, and communities are often left vulnerable and defenseless with a lack of resources for the things they need to get back on their feet. Events such as hurricanes, floods, earthquakes, tsunamis, war, conflicts, and epidemics can be devastating to communities leaving them without proper health care, food, water, clothing, shelter, and other basic needs.
Thankfully, there are many organizations out there helping to provide these basic resources in times of emergency and extreme need. Vincent Mays actively supports these groups to ensure that help is always available when the unexpected occurs. Some of these disaster relief organizations include:
- Habitat For Humanity
- American Red Cross
- All Hands Volunteers
Mental Health Charities
Mental health has become a rising issue in the United States and all across the globe in recent years with increased levels of stress, anxiety, depression, and suicide rates.
One of the major causes of this increase in mental health issues is the lack of access to effective treatment and proper care for many individuals. Focusing his career on mental fitness Vincent Mays has strived to increase accessibility to healthcare resources and push forward mental health initiatives raising awareness and providing active support. Some of the charities and nonprofits he has worked with and supported in this area include:
- The National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI)
- This Is My Brave, Inc.
- Project Semicolon
