WALK TO SAVE LIVES… In the United States, a person dies by suicide every 16 minutes, claiming more than 32,000 lives each year. It is estimated that an attempt is made every minute; with close to one million people attempting suicide annually.
AFSP (American Foundation for Suicide Prevention) just broke $150,000 raised with DonorDrive™! Congratulations!
