Organiser's Description
International Survivors of Suicide Loss Day is Saturday, November 18, 2023. Join us for this virtual run/walk/bike that you can do from anywhere. When someone dies by suicide, they affect everyone who knew and loved them. For those people, grief and trauma can be especially difficult. Because the death is self-inflicted, coming to terms with the reasons and the stigma associated with it often makes it hard to grapple with, which is why they need all the support they can get.
This race benefits the following non-profit organizations:
Suicide Awareness Voices of Education (SAVE)American Foundation for Suicide Prevention (AFSP)
