Hi:) My name is Sara and few months ago my brother took his own life! He was going through some personal problems and just could not cope any longer and unfortunately decided to commit suicide. He was not only my brother he was like my best friend, we talked all the time sometimes numerous times a day. I miss him so much and am having a very difficult time. I was doing research online and came across the AFSP website (American Foundation for Suicide Prevention) and thats were a found out about the Out of the Darkness Walks.

The Out of the Darkness Community Walks are 3-5 mile walks taking place in over 200 communities across the country this fall.

By walking in the Out of the Darkness Community Walks to benefit the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention (AFSP), you will be walking with thousands of people nationwide to raise money for AFSP's vital research and education programs to prevent suicide and save lives, increase national awareness about depression and suicide, advocate for mental health issues, and assist survivors of suicide loss.

I knew I wanted to take part in this walk and bring light to this great cause. I am walking in memory of my brother I would greatly appreciate any amount that you are able to donate.
