Gaithersburg non-profit awarded grant from MTV


Passion 4 Learning
, a Gaithersburg non-profit that helps prepare economically-disadvantaged students for educational and life success through STEM enrichment and college-readiness programs, has won a grant from MTV.  Twenty-two organizations across the country have received grants from MTV Entertainment Studios that will be used for programs and events related to Mental Health Action Day on May 18, 2023.

The grant provided to Passion 4 Learning will help fund the organization's "Take Action! For Mental Wellness" event on Mental Health Action Day 2023. According to MTV, the event "will provide an opportunity for high-school and college-aged students to take a meaningful break from the hustle and grind of AP tests and final exams and discover strategies for reclaiming their mental wellness through guided meditation and deep relaxation. This event will be hosted at the Takoma Park/ Silver Spring campus of Montgomery College and will be open both to students and to the local community."
