Creativity to Care: a mental health awareness campaign
Today, October 10th, we celebrate World Mental Health Day. This is an important date, as around 22% of the Portuguese population is affected by mental disorders (one of the highest rates in the European Union). In recent years, several campaigns have been launched to address mental health in a creative and conscious way, helping to demystify and raise awareness around this issue. These initiatives not only help break the stigma associated with mental health problems but also encourage seeking mental health support.
At Blisq, we are not indifferent to this reality, and we decided to promote a special activity: the “Creativity to Care” campaign. Our team came together to promote artistic expression as a way of raising awareness about mental health – the result was customizable tote bags, which will be available for purchase, with all proceeds going to a mental health support institution.
Each of us can play an active role in creating a more inclusive and understanding society, where everyone feels comfortable asking for help. Wear your tote bag with pride. Show that you care about mental well-being and that you are willing to support those who need help. As these tote bags become more colorful, remember that you, too, can brighten someone’s life.

Help us use creativity for a greater cause. Thank you!
