💜 The Su***de Prevention Walk & Health Expo is coming up — and we can’t wait! 💜

September 26th will be here before we know it, and we are so incredibly grateful for all of the amazing businesses, organizations, agencies, and community members who have stepped up to support this event. 💜

This is more than just a walk. It’s a day to come together as a community, raise awareness, remember those we’ve lost, support those who may be struggling, and remind one another that hope is always worth holding onto.

✨ This is an event you don’t want to miss! ✨

And of course, a walk is even better with some good food and treats! 😋

🍔 A very special thank you to the Florence Elks for providing food for our participants and community!

🍦 And a huge thank you to BJ’s for providing a sweet treat to enjoy during the event!

We are so grateful for the generosity and support that is helping make this day possible. We hope to see our whole community there!

💜 Come walk with us. Come connect. Come support. Come be part of a community that reminds people they are never alone.

Every life matters. 💜

📣 COMMUNITY — WE NEED YOU! ❤️

Sometimes we get requests for little things that fall outside what we can provide—but would be perfect for a handy neighbor or caring community member!

It could be:
🧹 A quick one-time cleaning
🌱 Digging a hole to bury a beloved pet
🔨 A small household task or repair
📦 A little lifting or moving
…and plenty of other small acts of kindness!

Would you like to be on our Community Helping Hands list?

Email: [email protected] with your name, phone number, email, and preferred contact method (text, call, or email).

🔒 Your information stays with us and will NEVER be given to clients.

When a request comes in, we’ll reach out and see if it’s something you can help with. No pressure and no obligation to say yes!

Sometimes, a little help from a neighbor can mean the world. 💙

Let’s keep taking care of our community—together!

Why this walk matters: to honor those we've lost, support those who are struggling, and remind our community that help is always available. This event is a chance to walk together — literally — toward hope. 🕊️🫶🎗️
