Celebrating 10 Years of Impact!
Ten years ago, we started with a vision: to build connected and resilient young people to prevent youth suicide.
A decade later—thanks to your unwavering support—we’ve touched countless lives, created safe spaces for teens, and empowered families with tools for mental wellness.
10 years. Thousands of lives. One mission.
As we celebrate this milestone, we reflect on the stories of strength, connection, and hope that YOU have made possible. But our work is far from over.
Together, let’s shape the next decade of impact.
