The 150 Strong Model
150 Strong empowers people to come together and helps school districts address the need for critical mental and behavioral health services. Students are begging for support, feeling isolated and overwhelmed by their thoughts, and desperately need a lifeline.
Partnering with schools, bound by crippling budget constraints, we are struggling to offer these essential services our students deserve.
You are the hero these kids need. By coming together, we change lives—one student at a time.

At least 150 people come together

Each person donates $1,000

Each donation is matched up to $150,000

At least $300,000 raised for school-based therapy services

Make a Positive Impact in Wisconsin Schools
With the 2025-2026 school year upon us and more than 50% of Wisconsin students reporting significant problems with anxiety and depression, Rawhide is raising the bar to help even more youth with 150 Strong.
Funds raised from 150 Stong will help us place critically needed therapists in more schools to help more kids! And to make an even bigger impact on students, all donations made to 150 Strong will be matched up to $150,000!
Can we count on you to help us support youth in our schools?
