Pause…to consider and raise money for the cause!



There are so many different ways to contribute time and/or money to Suicide Prevention Causes. Here are just a few ideas to get you started.


WALK. Get more information on starting or joining a local Out of the Darkness community walks, sponsored by AFSP. AFSP funds research aimed at improving our understanding of suicide and ways to prevent it as well as educational activities to increase awareness about prevention, warning signs and the psychiatric illnesses that can lead to suicide.

If you would rather RUN, Marathons, half marathons, triathlons or races of any kind are valuable opportunities to raise awareness and support the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention (AFSP). We will support you every step of the way, from registration to fundraising advice and event preparation in any racing event of your choice. Please click here for links to additional information.

Pledge to donate $5, $10, $24 or $48 per month directly to an organization that suits you. Here are two more to consider.
Feeling Blue Suicide Prevention Council
National Suicide Prevention Lifeline
