Hi! My name is Haley Gibbs and with the help and support of RFD FLAMES and Richmond Fire Fighters Union Local 1408, we are raising funds for suicide prevention and mental health awareness through a 5k run/walk. This race is brought together in order to bring light and conversation to a very difficult but real topic of suicide and mental health issues right here in our community.

All proceeds will go to furthering the conversation through a community memorial mural, donated to the National Suicide Hotline, and the expenses of this race. $12.50 of each 5K participants registration fees will go directly to the National Suicide Hotline and any remaining freewill donations will go towards a local memorial mural (up to the cost of mural $150) for awareness right here in Richmond. 

 

How you can help:

-Run/walk the 5k

-Make a donation yourself to the National Suicide Hotline directly or through our gofundme

-Make a donation here for race funds & community memorial mural expenses

-Continue the conversation of suicide prevention & mental health awareness
-See something, say something.
