Hey there, John.

What a month! Although it’s still tough sledding, August turned out to be one of our strongest months of the summer. I can’t thank you enough for your unwavering support. We reached our goal because people like you stepped up. Thank you!!

As we turn our eyes to September, it’s important for us to recognize Suicide Prevention Month. As someone who's lost a close friend to suicide, raising awareness around mental health is extremely important to me. In honor of that friend, I want to use this email to share a few resources in case anyone needs them:

Thank you,
