Support Student Mental Health
Sea Dragons Gavel Club is an affiliate of Erika’s Lighthouse, a nonprofit organization dedicated to ensuring no student feels alone in their depression. Through this affiliation, we are fundraising to support their free, evidence-informed mental health education and suicide prevention programs for middle and high schools around the world.
Erika’s Lighthouse Impact
These programs are already making a real impact:
- Over 1 million students reached in a single school year across 49 states and 26 countries
- 91% of students report they understand how to care for their mental health
- 92% say the program is helpful and important
- Most students report they would seek help from a trusted adult if a friend was in crisis
Erika’s Lighthouse operates through four pillars — Classroom Education, Empowerment Clubs, Family Engagement, and Staff Training — helping schools build supportive communities and reduce stigma around mental health.
Why Donations Matter
Because the resources are provided completely free to schools, donations are essential.
About $2 can bring mental health education to one student.
- $50 can support a classroom curriculum
- $250 can help launch a student Empowerment Club
- $1,000 can support a new school partnership
Your contribution is more than a donation — it gives students knowledge, confidence, and the courage to seek help.
Building Toward the Future
Erika’s Lighthouse has already reached its goal of impacting 1 million students, but the need continues to grow. The organization now aims to reach 2.5 million students each year by 2030.
Ongoing support helps:
- Expand free programs to underserved schools
- Strengthen data tracking to measure real outcomes
- Grow student-led Empowerment Clubs
- Sustain year-round mental health education
Lasting change requires more than a single gift — it requires a community committed to supporting young people.

Sea Dragons Gavel Club is committed to service and leadership, and supporting youth mental health is part of that mission. We invite you to join us in supporting this important cause.
