Teen Mental Health First Aid

Teen Mental Health First Aid, or tMHFA, is an evidence-based training program for students in grades 10-12 that teaches the skills to recognize and aid their peers experiencing mental health and substance use challenges and crises, including how to quickly get the help of an adult. The Maya Gold Foundation believes the teen Mental Health First Aid training is an invaluable resource for teens, especially during these difficult times. We are currently able to offer this training to high schools and youth groups at no-cost thanks to our partnership with HealthAlliance Hospitals and Westchester Medical Center health Network. Contact us to schedule an introductory program overview meeting.

Nepal School Supplies Initiative

The Maya Gold Foundation has held a special relationship with the people and nation of Nepal for a decade now. In April 2026, members of our Board of Directors and skilled volunteers will again travel to two schools in Nepal (Shree Vaishnabi Secondary School and Shree Adinath Secondary School) to work with local students and educators.

As part of this years' endeavor, we are also excited to donate necessary school supplies to the students of both schools. The supplies will not only directly improve the students’ daily lessons, but also strengthen the bonds of partnership between our community and theirs. By providing these materials, we can ensure that every student has the tools they need to access their inner wisdom and realize their dreams.

This is where you come in! If you are able and would like to donate directly to this initiative, you can do so by clicking the 'Donate' button below or by sending a check to:
The Maya Gold Foundation, Inc.
5 Wawarsing Road
New Paltz, NY 12561
(If donating by check, please include note, "Supplies for Nepal")

Thank you for joining us on this ongoing journey!
