đź’™ To Write Love on Her Arms
Event: Please Stay Alive.
In honor of Suicide Prevention Month, we’ve set a goal to raise $60,000 this September to provide scholarships for 800 hours of therapy and make 9,000 connections to mental health resources through our FIND HELP Tool. We believe it’s critical to acknowledge that suicide prevention isn’t just crisis intervention—it’s also access to affordable mental health care.
Losing just one person to suicide is one too many. People need to know that they are not alone, that help exists, and that hope is possible when we are given the chance to heal.

Here’s how your fundraising efforts make a difference:
- $250: Provides 5 hours of one-on-one support from our FIND HELP Program Care Coordinator, connecting people in need to accessible and affordable mental health care.
- $500: Sponsors 3 months of bi-weekly therapy visits for an individual in need.
- $1,000: Funds one month of access to our FIND HELP tool, helping over 3,000 individuals find affordable mental health providers in their zip code.
- $5,000: Covers the cost of 67 one-hour therapy sessions for individuals in need.
- $10,000: Sponsors the full cost of 12 months of bi-weekly therapy sessions for 5 individuals.
