Be A Light! Raise funds to break the stigma of suicide

Hi all,

I wanted to do something good and make the world a better place. When I found out that an estimated 129 people die by suicide per day in the United States. Every death by suicide affects an average of one-hundred people, and there are statically twenty-five attempts for each completed suicide. And yet there's stigma and shame surrounding the topic leading to a lack of resources and support to those struggling. I knew I had to help.

That's why I created a fundraiser to support A Light in Dark Places. Their campaign raise funds to shed a light on the matter and bring those affected together in community will create a world where those who are struggling know that they're not alone and supported by a community that is able to have healthy and informed discussion about mental health and suicide. —and you can be a part of it.
