“As a cognitive scientist and president of Dartmouth, I have a front-row seat to how students are adapting to an increasingly digital world—sometimes in ways that can be very dangerous, but also in ways that can foster the very things that technology is accused of diminishing—including engagement, connectivity, and mental well-being. Beating the mental health crisis will require meeting kids where they are: on their devices.”
Dartmouth President Sian Beilock

Your support powers the people building Evergreen — in the lab, on the lawn, and everywhere in between.

We have a real opportunity to help shape the future of digital wellness for students.

From the team
“I wholeheartedly believe the project can offer guidance and support for those not only finding difficulties in maintaining their mental health, but also those who are seemingly doing well. A better path and more manageable college experience will be possible with Evergreen.”

Your impact

Where your investment goes

Every student who works on Evergreen is paid for their work — your investment funds them first. Philanthropic support also powers the research infrastructure, data support, contract programmers, and business development behind the platform. The primary need of $7.5 million will fund the initial two-year launch period, with an additional $9 million required to complete the project and disseminate it beyond Dartmouth.
