Ahren has the best messages always. If you haven’t seen any of his comedy skits. I recommend you check them out. He’s overcome so many challenges in life. Reasons like Ahren, myself and many others is why we started the foundation.

To help you see, if we can do it. You can too, but, we want to support and encourage you along the way also!

We have a community Art & Music Festival that we’re currently setting up for in May 2027, in Cleburne Texas and we will be announcing registration soon!

You’ll be able to register (low-affordable vendor fees) and showcase your skills with us! We will be accepting children, teens and young adults as we want to empower the youth in our community to live their dreams!

They’ll be able to showcase their musical and artistry talents, culinary skills, and more! This is an exciting event and one that we are excited to bring to communities in Texas starting in 2027.

While we’ve been slow to get going, now that we’re here it’s ramping up fast!

Thank you for being a part of what has made RAWR what it is today and keep following along!

Registration opens up end of October!

These are some posts from my mental health channel. I've been making mental health content for longer than I've been a comedian, because my lived experience brought me from an angry lonely and bitter "alien" to a live full of love and happiness. I have always wanted to help people learn that no matter what the world has been to you, love is available to you.

We are still here.

After some life changes, a move, and a complete reset, we are focused and coming back stronger.

We put the previous event on hold for October but are gearing up and building a better community event for Spring!

STAY TUNED-IN for more information coming soon.

To those that previously inquired about the fall event we will be in contact soon about other upcoming events with confirmed dates to see if you are still interested to join us in Spring 2027!

Remember, we’re stronger together and no matter what you are going through on your journey, you belong here!

💜 YOU ARE NOT ALONE. 💜

The RAWR Foundation was created from a simple belief:

No one should have to face their hardest moments alone.

Too many people are struggling in silence. Too many people feel disconnected, overwhelmed, or like nobody would understand what they're going through. We're working to change that.

The RAWR Foundation exists to create safe spaces where people can connect, heal, learn, create, and simply be themselves without judgment.

RAWR stands for:

💜 Resilience
🧠 Awareness
🪷 Wellness
🤝 Relationships

Through community events, music, creative expression, education, peer support, and outreach, we're building a movement focused on connection and belonging.

Today, we're asking for your help.

Your donation will help us:
✅ Launch community programs
✅ Host outreach events
✅ Create safe gathering spaces
✅ Provide educational resources
✅ Expand mental wellness initiatives
✅ Reach more people who need support

Every dollar helps us build something bigger than an organization.

We're building a community.

A place where people can be real.
A place where people can find hope.
A place where people know they matter.

If you believe in creating stronger communities through connection, please consider donating and sharing our fundraiser.

💜 Together, we can remind people they are not alone.

Hi, I'm Lisa Viles, founder of The RAWR Foundation. RAWR stands for Resilience, Awareness… Lisa Viles needs your support for Help Us Build The RAWR Foundation

Calling All Local Artist in the DFW Area for a Volunteer Event for our Launch Party, Saturday, September 19, 2026.

We are planning to host our first event and official launch party on September 19, 2026 in or near Irving or Mansfield, Texas (Location TBD and will be confirmed in the next few weeks).

This is not a paid event, however, you will gain lots of exposure and opportunities to land paid gigs for future to come through The RAWR Foundation and other opportunities! All proceeds collected during this event are to support our community start up initiatives and help us purchase equipment and supplies for future events - help us, help you, by helping them!

Looking for the following talents:
🥰 Face Painter(s)
🤘 Local Musical Talent (Garage Bands, Established Bands, Youth/Young Adults, Beat Boxers, Rappers, show us what you can do!)

🚚 Do you own a food truck? We could use 2-3 vendors! All funds will be yours!

This event is kicking it old school with 1999- early 2000's themes.

The RAWR Foundation is a community-driven outreach and wellness initiative dedicated to creating safe, supportive, and creatively empowering spaces for teenagers, young adults, families, artists, and individuals navigating mental health struggles, trauma, addiction, grief, isolation, and life’s most difficult seasons. We create events and environments where individuals feel seen, supported, and empowered to discover their own Resilience, Awareness, Wellness and learn how to build meaningful relationships and purpose.

RAWR was built from lived experience and a deep understanding that many people are silently carrying pain while feeling disconnected from traditional support systems.

Please consider donating or sharing the cause so we can build events and programs to help those in need!

The smallest recognition of appreciation can go a long way. A handwritten note, making dinner, a picnic in the park, anything to put a smile on someone’s face can change their day.

Who is this little one?

My first pregnancy loss last year that I had at the end of April. A month after losing my mother, which was a a month after losing my Grandma.

I drew this on a welcome home sign hoping I’d get a cute reaction, because this baby had a sign that said “love you”. I got nothing, I got dismissed, I got mocked and silently judged.

But my creative side, is my sweet side, it’s how I can connect without being loud, because when I tried to explain myself, it just sounded like chaos because of my anxiety.

This is why mental health matters and sitting and getting to know one another matters.

This is why mental health support matters.

Because life isn’t black and white, and no two people are the same.

Thank you to those few who believed in me and pushed me to keep believing and keep dreaming this year. I couldn’t have gotten here without you!

Love doesn’t have to be loud to exist
