Over the course of the past year, Cavaliers forward Kevin Love has become a leading voice in forwarding the national conversation regarding mental health awareness. On World Mental Health Awareness Day, Love took his advocacy a step further.
On Wednesday, Love announced the launch of the Kevin Love Fund, a trust focused on helping people improve their physical and mental well being. In partnership with Headspace, the fund sent 850 subscription donations to UCLA and provided in-person mental training sessions for Bruins student athletes and coaches.
Love, who wrote about his complications with mental health in The Players' Tribune earlier this year, told USA Today that he was inspired to partner with Headspace because of the app's role in his daily routine.
