BENEFITING: SURVIVORS OF SUICIDE INC
EVENT: Walk for Hope - Depression and Suicide Awareness
EVENT DATE: Aug 17, 2014
THE STORY:
This is our 3rd year organizing our family team for participation in the “Walk for Hope.” Sadly last year our "greater" team lost two young men to suicide. Please help us raise funds to educate our communities about Depression and Suicide Awareness. With YOUR help we can bring hope to so many and hopefully prevent anyone from thinking this is their only option and saving many family members from the unspeakable grief that we are all left with.
We walk in the memory of our amazing family members who left us way to soon (Becky Moore, Bob Reaume, Jeannie LaPere, Blake Seamster and Sean Clark). Not a day goes by that they are not in our thoughts, they are loved and missed dearly. It is our hope and prayer that through education and sharing we can reach out to those who are suffering and encourage them to seek help and realize there are other options. To believe that there is hope. This moment is simply that "a moment in time" and with help, things can and will get better. For all you "survivors," know that you are not alone. There are many of us that share the pain and we understand the depth of the grief and how very difficult it is to move on from that grief. Help is out there for you too, use it and find support from others who can empathize with you.
