When my husband lost his battle with depression and died by suicide in 2005, I became an advocate for mental health awareness. I had to find a way to turn my pain into purpose and was so lucky to discover LifeAct. Their school program to help middle and high school students recognize the signs of depression and thereby prevent suicide really resonated with me. After 27 years, we are now in over 200 schools and 300,000 students have received our program. Several thousand have come forward and asked for help. I believe we are saving young lives.

I hope you will run, walk or donate. Because no one should have to suffer mental pain in silence and no family or loved one should be left behind to wonder why and what if…

Together we are saving lives…one step at a time!

Heartfelt thanks,

Loree
