Multi-platinum singer-songwriter Jewel and her Inspiring Children Foundation have announced the return of the Not Alone Summit and Award Show. The three-day event will take place from November 2 to November 4 at the Wynn Las Vegas, with the National Alliance on Mental Illness joining as a founding partner.
The gathering begins on November 2 with the second annual Not Alone Award Show, hosted by comedian Loni Love. The ceremony will be livestreamed on iHeartRadio’s official YouTube channel to celebrate advocates and leaders working in mental and emotional well-being.
Honorees, presenters, and performers for the award show include Anthony Ramos, Ray Lewis, NAMI CEO Daniel H. Gillison Jr., Mike Majlak, Lexi Hensler, and Caroline Jones. Additional returning participants include Mike Tyson, Darryl “DMC” McDaniels, Kevin Hines, and Bob and Mike Bryan.
Following the awards, Jewel will co-host the Not Alone Summit on November 3 and November 4 alongside Steve Wozniak, Cherrial Odell, and Jason Kennedy. The summit brings together leaders across entertainment, business, science, philanthropy, and wellness to focus on mental health solutions.
The event grew out of the annual #NotAloneChallenge campaign, which launches its fifth year on October 10 to coincide with World Mental Health Day. To date, the campaign has raised more than $3 million for the Inspiring Children Foundation to provide mental health resources and tools to underserved youth.
In recognition of the fifth annual challenge, the foundation has partnered with Hugz to release a limited-edition weighted plush turtle for $59.99, with a portion of proceeds benefiting the charity. Jewel, who experienced homelessness as a teenager before building her music career, has spent over 27 years developing and sharing mental health programs.
