About Us

We’re a new 501(c)3 nonprofit recently launched to seek solutions to the loneliness epidemic.

The Loneliness Institute is a project of the Interplanetary Help Desk (IHD). 

IHD is a 501(c)3 non-profit that incubates organizations seeking real-world rollouts of large-scale solutions to under-addressed civic and social problems, especially those with many small, fragmented, or isolated initiatives. 

We serve as a neutral clearinghouse to bring together a critical mass of innovators and researchers to study, collaborate, share and amplify wide-impact solutions.

Our projects operate on a standardized template that creates maximum impact through speed, efficiency, and accountability. We encourage entrepreneurial mindsets and data-driven impact analysis.
