Get to know us

PurpleMinds Foundation was born from a simple but powerful observation: the health of our minds and the health of our environment are deeply connected. Founded by Ssengendo Hassan (Dexta), a professional photographer and mental health advocate, we combine therapeutic support with environmental action to create lasting change.
