Kicking The Stigma is the Indianapolis Colts and the Jim Irsay family's initiative to raise awareness about mental health and remove the stigma often associated with mental illnesses. Kicking The Stigma raises and distributes funding to nonprofits and organizations, primarily in Indiana, that provide treatment, conduct research or raise awareness about mental health and wellness.

Purchase the Kickoff Concert tee onsite at one of the three Colts Pro Shop locations. The Colts will donate proceeds to the Kicking the Stigma Action Fund, which supports Indiana-based mental health organizations with necessary funding.
