In October 2024, at the Hats On for Awareness Gala, a new partnership was announced that had more significance than most would realize. Giovanni Morelli, founder of Mazzzing, was introduced and asked to the stage. Giovanni shared about our vision and our commitment to innovation in technology that would revolutionize and positively change the world. He also declared his admiration for the valuable work of Hats On For Awareness in breaking barriers to mental health awareness and access, and how he and his company would like to part of that mission. "We pledged a donation of $50,000 that day, but more importantly, announced a partnership between our two organizations to work together to bridge technology and mental health" said by Giovanni Morelli, CEO & CTO.
Hats On For Awareness is a Toronto based charity that is committed to raising awareness and funds to further the reach of mental health programs. They seek to enhance the lives of those living with and affected by mental illness and addictions, as well as promoting mental wellness and health. They believe that mental health is a vital component to overall wellness, and should be a priority in our personal, business, and community lives. Hats On For Awareness raises funds that help break barriers to ensure local mental health and wellness programs can be accessible to more individuals. Access to mental health programs is not a privilege for some but is a right for all.
So, why is a technology company partnering with a mental health charity, and vice versa? The simple answer is everything is interconnected and has the potential to be a tool for good. Technology can be an incredibly essential part of someone’s mental health journey. Access to empowering technology can completely open opportunities, give access to information, and give a sense of worth and purpose. This is the same goal as mental health and wellness. There is a lot said about technology being harmful to mental health in terms of screen addiction, isolation, and the perils of social media, etc. Therefore, it is unique to be partnering with an empowering technology like Cluo that is being a bridge to wellness and doorway to opportunities for those that need it most.
For us at Mazzzing, this marks a partnership with a charity and a great cause that are close to our hearts, but more importantly, our commitment to being a social conscious company that is intentionally developing our community engagement and charitable activism. As we strive to be an investor and trailblazer in the tech world, we want to do the same in helping people and being a force for change in our community. The partnership with Hats On For Awareness is an exciting synergy between organizations with similar values and dedication to progress. We have the technology that can help people, and they have the social consciousness and connections to deliver it to those that need it most. We have long believed that technology can enhance and improve lives. So, it is logical that since mental health is health, we see that access to technology can and will impact mental health in a positive way. This is our commitment and passion.
