In a move that’s getting a major thumbs-up from across the industry, the popular foot fetish site Feet4Cash has just announced it’s throwing its weight behind Pineapple Support, the non-profit championing mental health for adult performers. This isn’t just a simple donation; it’s a statement about putting creators first.
Putting Their Best Foot Forward
Let’s be real: the adult industry runs on the talent and hard work of its creators. Massimiliano Bonelli, the founder of Feet4Cash, knows this better than most. Having been in the game and working alongside performers since 2008, he’s seen the immense pressure they’re under. He didn’t mince words about why this partnership was a personal mission for him.
“Without content creators, the adult entertainment industry simply would not exist,” Bonelli stated. “We know very well the kind of pressure they face every day: from the way society looks at them to the often inappropriate behavior of some fans. What Pineapple Support does is nothing short of incredible and absolutely essential for the future of our industry.”
Bonelli also made it clear that Feet4Cash is committed to making sure every creator on their platform knows about the free and low-cost resources Pineapple Support offers. It’s a powerful promise that goes beyond just writing a check.
A Lifeline in the Industry
For anyone who doesn’t know, Pineapple Support has become an absolute cornerstone of the community since it was founded by performer Leya Tanit back in 2018. After a tragic series of losses in the industry due to mental health struggles, Tanit created the organization to provide a safe, stigma-free space for performers to get help.
Today, the 501(c)(3) non-profit has connected over 15,000 adult professionals with vital mental health services. It’s a staggering number that proves just how needed their work is. Tanit expressed her excitement about the new collaboration:
“Partnering with Feet4Cash is an exciting step forward for Pineapple Support. Their dedication to the well-being of creators aligns beautifully with our mission… We’re grateful for their support and look forward to working together to make a lasting difference.”
More Than a Trend, It’s a Movement
This partnership is part of a larger, much-needed shift in the adult world. For years, the conversation around performer mental health was whispered, if it happened at all. Now, it’s front and center. With the rise of creator-centric platforms, the well-being of the talent is finally being seen as a crucial component of a sustainable and ethical industry.
Feet4Cash joins a roster of over seventy other adult companies and organizations backing Pineapple Support, a clear sign that the industry is waking up to its responsibility. It’s a collective effort to build a healthier, more supportive environment for the people who make it all possible.
Bonelli’s parting words served as a call to action for every other company in the space, perfectly summing up the urgency of the moment.
“I also encourage every company in our space that has not yet taken this step to seriously consider supporting this organization,” he urged. “It is not just the right thing to do, it is something our industry cannot afford to ignore any longer.”
