My Story…
We lost our 21 year old son, David Wylie, to suicide in 2002. We've been supporters of Second Wind and its mission to provide free mental health counseling to Colorado youth at-risk of suicide and under-insured or uninsured since 2003. Our church, Green Mountain United Methodist Church (GMUMC) has strongly supported Second Wind as well. Anything you can do to support Second Wind will help make a difference to youth struggling with suicidal thoughts and those that love them.
Description
Support me in raising funds for Second Wind Fund! Suicide is currently the leading cause of death for youth in Colorado.
