WHO ARE YOUR LIFE TEAMMATES? DO THEY KNOW!
Since the foundation was formed, over $1.0M has been raised, by the kids! An incredible achievement! Spreading a positive message of love and hope that not only raises awareness of depression and teen suicide in their communities, but helps them understand the power that they have to deliver hope to each other!
