Help Emily raise money

For participating in 19th Annual Second Wind Virtual Walk/Run

My Story…

After discovering that I have Bipolar Disorder earlier this year, I was inspired to virtually walk/run this Second Wind race. Join our Spirit Animals team by choosing to walk/run a 5k or just donate money to this very worthy cause. Suicide is the most common cause of death of children under 13. Join me in helping all kids thrive by getting counseling when they need it, regardless of their ability to pay. 

Description

Support me in raising funds for Second Wind Fund! Suicide is currently the leading cause of death for youth in Colorado. Second Wind Fund aims to decrease the incidence of suicide in children and teenagers by removing the financial and social barriers to treatment. Second Wind Fund's program is delivered in 30 counties across Colorado, including: Denver, Jefferson, Mesa, Arapahoe and Douglas Counties. To date, Second Wind Fund's program has served over 6,400 youth. Your support directly helps us save young lives from suicide.


Your Impact

Your support helps to save lives. Second Wind Fund is capable of saving a young life from suicide for every $1,000 received:

12 therapy sessions at $70 a session = $840
3 Suicidal Ideation Questionnaires (SIQs) = $30
Therapist travel reimbursement = $120
Minimal administrative costs = $10

Total = $1,000
