Young Heart’s Project | Our New Partner

We’ve partnered with Headspace to give young Australians a helping hand.

Headspace is the National Youth Mental Health Foundation providing early intervention mental health services to 12-25-year olds. Each year, Headspace helps thousands of young people access vital support through their headspace services in over 150 communities across Australia, online and phone counselling services, vocational services, and presence in schools. Headspace can help young people with mental health, physical health (including sexual health) alcohol and other drug services, and work and study support.

The partnership will see $2 from the purchase of every full-priced pair of Deuce sneakers, donated to our charity, Young Hearts Project. Deuce can be purchased online or at Merchant 1948 footwear stores across Melbourne. Once donated, funds will then be distributed to Headspace to provide health support and assistance to Australia’s young people.

“Headspace is the perfect partner for the Young Hearts Project - we have a shared vision for helping youth in Australia. We’re excited for what we might achieve together in the future”. - Shane Anselmi, Merchant 1948 Director and founder of Deuce.
