🙌 About us

LiveBetter is a non-profit foundation with a mission to make well-being accessible for everyone around the world. We have two primary activities.

First, we provide non-constrained grants and continued financial support to non-profits that use digital technologies to improve mental health and well-being at scale.

Second, we partner with select organizations and provide product, design and engineering resources to develop digital mental health interventions. For example, the "10 Days of Happiness" digital coaching program was done in collaboration with Action for Happiness: https://10daysofhappiness.org

🌎 Who are we?

The team behind LiveBetter is small, but diverse in backgrounds and in location. We are a virtual team with people in New York, Colorado, Switzerland and Spain. Our backgrounds range from public health, social work, and psychology to architecture and online advertising. We all share one goal … to help the world live better.

☀️ What do we care about?

First, we value impact. Many solutions have a primary focus of making money, driving engagement or are simply based on "gut feel". While those things are often correlated with impact , they are not always aligned. Everything we do and fund or work on has a foundation in research and a measurable impact on mental health and well-being.

Second, we believe in scale. The magnitude of the mental health crisis is so massive, we want to work on and fund solutions that we think can have an impact at massive scale.

Third, we like to keep it fun and lighthearted. We believe a little dose of humor always helps, so we try to weave it in wherever we can.

❤️ What about the LiveBetter app?

LiveBetter initially started as a for profit organization developing a direct to consumer app.

In March of 2020 LiveBetter teamed up with Ginger, an on-demand mental health company. Ginger acquired all of our app technology assets, while still generously allowing LiveBetter to continue to operate free services for individuals using the same technology. You can learn more here about the acquisition. It is at this point that we transitioned to a 501(c) non-profit organization.

Since 2020 LiveBetter has shifted it's focus away from delivering it's own B2C solutions and instead started partnering with other organizations to help them deliver tech solutions at scale.
