Out of the Darkness Walks - Walk to Save Lives
"Suicide
claimed 40,600 lives in 2012 in the United States alone, with someone
dying by suicide every 12.9 minutes. A suicide attempt is made every
minute of every day, resulting in nearly one million attempts made
annually.When you walk in
the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention’s Out of the Darkness
Walks, you join efforts with thousands of people nationwide to raise
money for AFSP’s vital research and education programs to prevent
suicide and save lives. The walks raise awareness about depression and
suicide, and provide comfort and assistance to those who have lost
someone to suicide." -AFSP
