Get help to others and inspire us all!

There are many many people in this world who are hurting, who are lonely, and who are in need of some love and kindness. However, many of them silently struggle, why? Because they don't know about resources they can use for support.
A great way to help others is to get the right help to them at the right time. At 7 Cups, we as a kind and caring community are touching thousands of lives everyday and are striving to do more.

We are the unique community that helps, gets helped, and also makes sure help reaches others. As a part of this philosophy I want to share something worth thinking about with you -
"In this world of billions, no one should feel unheard and lonely!"

In order to get help to others, lets spread the word. There are many ways of doing that depending on your comfort zone.
1- Online - tweet, post, share about 7 Cups, invite those who are hurting to seek help. Inspire those who don't know to let go of stigma
2- Offline - use flyers, posters, notes to tell people about 7 Cups. You can reach out in libraries, community centers, mental health centers, even post a flyer on a pole on your street! Someone in need will see it and reach out.
3- Tell your friends - see someone hurting? Encourage them to seek help, to reach out. Tell your friends to tell their friends the same if they see someone hurting
4- Post here! - tell us what you did and share your creative ideas so we can all learn and do the same.

Can't wait to hear some new and innovative ideas. The key points are -
a- Spread the word when you can and however you are able to
b- Encourage and inspire to reach out and leave the stigma
c- Post here so we can all learn, follow, and get inspired

Unable to share? Just give someone a hug.

@Twish

This is an awesome idea. I recently shared about 7 Cups in a different way than I have before--once it goes through, I'll share on here :)

Definitely! I've been thinking of creative ways to get 7 cups across to others as well, including referals at school or just through word of mouth with people I know. I've been thinking of other ways.

Maybe I could start a little club for school if kids are interested and I could have kids stay after school and talk to their listener or set them up at school & let them try it out at home by themselves

At the moment I am trying to get my brother to see past mental health stigma and to understand that we are " normal " ( let's change that to special ) human beings just like everyone else ! It's not easy convincing him but hopefully I'll get somewhere <3
