About Peg’s
Peg’s is a philanthropic organization in Hudson, Ohio dedicated to improving the lives of people affected by serious mental illness. Guided by our founder’s call to Think Bigger, Peg’s advances innovative solutions, strengthens systems of care, and fosters community connection.
Founder & Legacy
Peg Morgan believed recovery should be expected, not exceptional.
Her lived experience shaped a bold vision: reduce stigma, elevate voices, and build systems that work.
Today, Peg’s carries that vision forward, advancing innovation, strengthening partnerships, and expanding what is possible for people living with serious mental illness.
Leadership
Strong governance protects a strong mission.
Peg’s Board and leadership team steward resources with discipline, transparency, and long-term focus. Every decision is grounded in accountability and guided by our commitment to improving lives through thoughtful, responsible action.
Advancing a Stronger System
Improving lives requires more than intention. It takes clarity, collaboration, and sustained leadership. Peg’s convenes leaders, invests in bold solutions, and helps move the mental health field toward a higher standard of care.
Think Bigger
Peg believed philanthropy could do more than fund programs. It could challenge assumptions, elevate new ideas, and strengthen systems that were falling short.
That belief still guides Peg’s today. We invest in practical innovation, support evidence-informed models, and convene leaders who are ready to improve how mental health care is delivered.
Our mission remains clear: to improve the lives of people with serious mental illness.
We envision a world where all regard mental wellness as an integral part of a healthy life and where recovery from mental illness is the expectation.
Peg Morgan was born on September 5, and she loved a good dessert. Today, we honor her memory with bowls of ice cream and full hearts. ❤️
Happy Birthday, Peg!

For Kimberly Chapman, art is a way to tell stories that might otherwise be forgotten.
During our recent panel discussion, Kimberly reflected on her journey from the Cleveland Institute of Art to becoming a narrative artist, and how porcelain became a way to preserve the stories of women sent to asylums in the 1800s-1900s.
Stay tuned for more perspectives from our August 20 panel discussion, “Looking Back, Thinking Forward: Women and Mental Health.”
Last week, we welcomed local philanthropic leaders to Peg’s Campus to learn more about each other’s work, exchange ideas, and explore what might be possible together.
It was also a chance to consider who else could strengthen the conversation—and what we might accomplish together. #ThinkBigger
