SolMateo, a nonprofit organization based in San Mateo County, is hosting its annual kitchen tour to raise awareness for mental health support. The event combines a passion for home design with important initiatives for mental health. SolMateo is the largest private donor to mental health and crisis support programs in the area, including StarVista and the Mental Health Association of San Mateo County. The nonprofit aims to improve the lives of those struggling with mental illness or suicidal thoughts. Executive Director Sarah Furrer shared her personal experience with depression while discussing the organization's impact. She emphasized the importance of providing support to individuals who often lack a supportive network. The Signature Kitchen Tour will feature five unique kitchens in San Mateo and Hillsborough. It will take place on Friday, May 16, from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Tickets can be purchased at SolMateo.org, and all proceeds will benefit local mental health services.
