Bluemind Foundation is a nonprofit pioneering community-based mental health by integrating care into everyday spaces—starting with hair salons, where women naturally gather and confide. Through Heal by Hair, Bluemind Foundation trains trusted community members to detect distress, provide compassionate listening, and connect people to care. With nearly 1,000 hairdressers trained and over 300,000 women reached across Africa, the organization delivers scalable, evidence-based solutions in settings where professionals are scarce. Bluemind Foundation’s mission is to make mental health accessible with hope, dignity, and cultural resonance—to everyone, everywhere, every day.
