Sony/Marvel

Sony and Marvel have partnered with the Kevin Love Fund for this short story fundraiser designed to raise awareness of the challenges of mental health. After all, even superheroes struggle with everything life throws at them.


Here's more information about the project from Sony:

We are proud to officially debut The Spider Within: A Spider-Verse Story, in partnership with the Kevin Love Fund. Because everyone is going through something, even superheroes like Miles Morales.

Through a unique combination of education, research, advocacy, and grantmaking, the Kevin Love Fund helps destigmatize mental health challenges and ensures people who are struggling have the tools needed to thrive. Our social emotional learning curriculum has given 55,000+ kids the skills they need to cope with life’s difficulties and is available for free to everyone thanks to donors like you. If you'd like to donate to this project, please visit this link.

Sony Pictures Animation has teamed up with the Kevin Love Fund to digitally release the animated short film, The Spider Within: A Spider-Verse Story, that will be incorporated into the Kevin Love Fund’s new mental health focused lesson plan, “The Hero Within.” The lesson plan invites students to tell their own story through the lens of mental health awareness via an interactive curriculum including a creative storyboard activity. To access the free lesson plan that accompanies “The Spider Within” film, visit https://kevinlovefund.org/spider-man-lesson/

In the genre-bending thriller The Spider Within: A Spider-Verse Story, Miles Morales struggles to balance his responsibilities as a teenager, friend, and student while acting as Brooklyn’s friendly neighborhood Spider-Man. After a particularly challenging day living with these pressures, Miles experiences a panic attack that forces him to confront the manifestations of his anxiety and learn that reaching out for help can be just as brave an act as protecting his city from evil.
