ManGang - It's Not Weak to Speak
The ManGang was founded by a man who struggled with poor mental health all of his adult life.
He, like many other men, found it difficult to share his experience and condition with others for fear of judgement.
He thought that he would be judged as being weak.
After losing a close friend to suicide on 2017, he embarked on a campaign to break the stigma that stopped his friend from talking about his issues.
The ManGang is based on the simple concept that ‘It’s Not Weak To Speak.’
