Champion Mental Health & Justice Reform—Donate Today!

Open Heart Leaders' Heart to Heart Gala is more than just a fundraising event—it’s a movement. This annual gala raises critical funds for the Heart to Heart Counseling Program, which provides free, year-long mental health services to individuals impacted by incarceration. Too often, justice-impacted individuals are denied the behavioral health care they need, leading to higher recidivism rates and continued cycles of hardship. Together, we can change that.

Every May, we unite with donors, community leaders, and local businesses to celebrate Mental Health Awareness Month and Open Heart Leaders Day on May 24th. With powerful speakers, unforgettable entertainment, and San Diego’s most passionate change makers, the Heart to Heart Gala is an experience that makes a real difference.

But we can’t do it alone. We need YOU to stand with us.
