AFSP - Disneyland® ½ Marathon

Amy & Brenda

Fundraising Page for Disneyland® Half Marathon
September 2, 2012 at Disneyland® Resort

Dear Friends & Family,

Brenda and I will be participating in the 2012 Disneyland® Half Marathon (OUR 1st HALF MARATHON!!!) and are raising funds for the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention (AFSP) to support vital local and national suicide prevention efforts. We would appreciate any support that you give us for this worthwhile cause. Your donation will inspire us that we have a support team cheering us on (even if from afar) and help those who need it most at the same time!!! As you can imagine this will be a huge personal accomplishment!!!!

AFSP is at the forefront of research, education and prevention initiatives designed to reduce loss of life from suicide. With more than 36,000 lives lost each year in the U.S. and over one million worldwide, the importance of AFSP's mission has never been greater, nor your support more urgent.

I hope you will consider making a donation to this event. Any contribution will help the work of AFSP, and all donations are 100% tax deductible.

Donating online is safe and easy! To make an online donation please click the "Support This Participant" button on this page.

Thank you in advance for your support of not only us, but also AFSP and the many individuals who will be impacted by the important work they do, we appreciate it more than you know! :)

DID YOU KNOW?

For every $50 I raise, AFSP can provide educational materials to 25 people, emphasizing the importance of early identification and treatment for those suffering from depression and other disorders that put them at risk.

For every $100 we raise, AFSP can educate a mental health professional or primary care physician about the warning signs of suicide; they, in turn, will reach hundreds (maybe thousands)of people.

For every $500 we raise, AFSP can train a new Survivor of Suicide support group facilitator, and the members of the group will be given a chance to be with other survivors who understand, and will know that they are not alone.
