OUR STORY
Quest was founded in 2022 by Luke Shirley, a Charleston native who turned his personal struggles into a mission to help others. After facing the darkest moments of his life while in college, Luke felt called to create a safe, supportive space where young adults and college students could openly talk about mental health and begin their healing journeys. What began as one person’s quest for purpose has grown into a powerful movement for awareness, connection, and hope.
