The American Foundation for Suicide Prevention is the leader in the fight against suicide. We fund research, create educational programs, advocate for public policy, and support survivors of suicide loss. Led by CEO Robert Gebbia and headquarted in New York, AFSP has 70+ local chapters around the Country hosting events nationwide, all working to Save Lives and Bring Hope to those Impacted by Suicide.
Why We Walk ...
Every year suicide claims more lives than war, murder, and natural disasters combined, and yet suicide prevention doesn't get anywhere near the funding given to other leading causes of death. It's up to Walkers like us to make a difference. Together we can change the conversation about mental health and put a stop to this tragic loss of life. #BeTheVoice to #StopSuicide
The Out of the Darkness Campus Walks are the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention's (AFSP) signature student fundraising series, designed to engage youth and young adults in the fight to prevent suicide, the second leading cause of death among people ages 18-24.
Help prevent suicide at Ohio State by captaining or joining a team for the annual spring Ohio State Suicide Prevention Program Out of the Darkness Campus Walk! This collaborative event with the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention is a journey of remembrance, hope, and support and an opportunity to unite our Buckeye community – a time to acknowledge the ways in which suicide and mental illness have affected our lives and our loved ones. All undergraduate students, graduate and professional students, staff, faculty, and alumni are invited to participate.
Thank you for walking with us! #TogetherWeAreStronger
