We Did It—And Then Some Because of You
Something truly incredible happened on our Day of Giving campaign on February 25, 2025. We met our $50,000 goal and surpassed it by raising over $75,000 to support youth mental health!
But this campaign was about more than just numbers. It was a powerful statement from our community: We will not let young people struggle alone. You stood up. You showed that every life matters.
because of your generosity
More students in crisis will receive the therapy they urgently need.
More schools will have access to vital mental health education and support.
More individuals will be trained to recognize and respond to warning signs of suicide.
While this 24-hour campaign was a success, our mission continues. The need is still great, and every additional dollar makes a difference—bringing hope, saving lives, and ensuring no young person feels alone.
From the bottom of our hearts, thank you. Your compassion and belief in our mission are changing lives.
“It means so much to me as a mom who has lost their teenage son to suicide to be able to shine a spotlight on mental health. Our kids have to have the courage to say I need help.
