SeekHer Foundation

According to the World Health Organization, women are twice as likely as men to suffer from mental health struggles. As WellSeek’s non-profit arm, SeekHer Foundation amplifies our social mission & public commitment to bridge the gender gap of mental health through advocacy, research, and support for women-led communities.

Since 2021, we've partnered with advocates and allied organizations to create an ecosystem of change, shifting cultural norms that hold women back from their well-being and success. At the heart of our work lies a commitment to wellness and equity, building a healthier and more inclusive world that will truly ‘hear her.

Amplifying Advocacy:
Research, Collaboration, and Action

SeekHer Shift Research

Championing mental health advocacy, our research identifies key well-being barriers and reveals cultural shifts women most desire from society. Fueled by the voices of over 4,700 women around the U.S., our national survey drives SeekHer’s programmatic themes while helping influential brands understand the needs of women as members of our workforces and communities, paving the way for positive change.

#WeHearHer Advocacy Council

We’re building a powerful coalition of nearly 500 individuals and allied organizations through the #WeHearHer Advocacy Council. Driven by research on women's mental health, our peer-led think tank pledges collective action to ignite conversations through monthly events and local peer chapters to activate positive change in our workplaces and communities.

Cause Campaigns & Impact Partnerships

Uplifting over 40,000 women monthly, our community care programs provide free access to mental well-being resources and support spaces. By igniting discussions to redefine health, identity, and success in today's world, our collaborative self-care advocacy campaigns and impact partnerships foster a sense of belonging while supporting women in our homes, workplaces, and communities.

Who We’ve Teamed Up With to Ignite Impact

In a two-year collaboration with Pure Leaf, we launched the Anthem Award-winning "No" Grants Program. Partnering with maternal rights advocates Allyson Felix and Elaine Welteroth, the program received nearly 400,000 grant submissions and awarded $600,000 in microgrants and community care resources. The initiative empowered women and mothers to prioritize their well-being by setting boundaries and focusing on what truly matters.

Through a two-year #LookForwardProject initiative in partnership with RoC Skincare and actress Sarah Jessica Parker, we challenged societal norms that negatively impacted women's well-being, championing hope and optimism as pillars of mental health.

Together, we launched the LookForward Community Program, empowering both the next generation and their parents through expert-led workshops, self-care resources, and a youth leadership program. The program reached over 35,000 women, fostering a more positive outlook and optimistic future within families.

In partnership with Verizon WAVE (Womxn's Association of Verizon Employees), nearly 200 volunteer hours were mobilized within a month to support the SeekHer Shift survey research initiative. The collaboration amplified women's advocacy and sparked crucial conversations around mental health awareness within their ERG. The vast majority of volunteers reported experiencing increased awareness around a social issue and felt their efforts contributed to a meaningful cause.

To activate their social purpose of making women's health resources more accessible, we partnered with Nutrafol on social media campaigns that explored the impact of COVID-related physical and emotional stressors on women's wellness, while also delving into the root mental health challenges faced by BIPOC communities. The campaigns reached a wide audience and sparked important conversations about women's well-being. Nutrafol’s commitment went beyond awareness; during Stress Awareness Month, the company supported SeekHer's initiatives through a donation of proceeds.

  • "The SeekHer Shift Report is an important tool in understanding the complex forces impacting women's mental health, and how society can impact change. When we know better, we do better. This report and its resulting roadmap offer organizations the vital information they need to make changes that will support and empower women so they can lead and thrive."

    — Caroline Lynn, Senior Vice President of Brand Purpose, Edelman

  • "It has been an honor to partner with SeekHer to support the work they are doing to bridge the gender gap in mental health, especially given the significant and disproportionate effect the past few years have had on the stress and mental well-being of women."

    — Giorgos Tsetis, co-founder and CEO of Nutrafol

  • "The annual SeekHer Shift Report is an important effort in breaking the cycle and being a catalyst for action. Together we can propel organizations forward by building a more supportive environment for employees and advocate for similar advancements across the corporate landscape and in our communities."

    — Hanneke Willenborg, CEO of OLLY

  • "There are too many external factors limiting womens' ability to have a positive outlook on the future—from societal pressures to unrealistic beauty standards to perfectionism—which is why it's so important to support the work that SeekHer is doing to shift the cultural narrative."

    — Hillary Hutcheson, CMO of RoC Skincare

  • "We are committed to doing our part to create a culture that supports women’s mental health. We are proud to join SeekHer’s Advocacy Council and partner with them & other like-minded allies to continue collaborating on ways to build a better world for women."
