One of our good friend's from the DMV Legends contacted me about making a post of a very serious event she is having. A walk to prevent suicide in Washington D.C. which is a topic near and dear to her. We want to share the word about this movement and also give you all the info to be apart of it.
The link to the page is HERE where you can learn about the walk and the movement which is taking donations in order to fund the event HERE.
This is what they have to say about the movement and event.
Dear Friend,
We will be joining with thousands of people nationwide this fall to walk in the Out of the Darkness Washington DC Walk, benefiting the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention, and we would appreciate any support that you give for this worthwhile cause.
The American Foundation for Suicide Prevention is at the forefront of research, education and prevention initiatives designed to reduce loss of life from suicide. With more than 36,000 lives lost each year in the U.S. and over one million worldwide, the importance of AFSP's mission has never been greater, nor our work more urgent.
Any contribution will help the work of AFSP, and all donations are 100% tax deductible.
Donating online is safe and easy! To make an online donation please search for one of the participants and then click the "Support This Participant" button on their page. Donations can only be made to individuals, but the total each participant raises goes toward our team goal.
