Loops of Gray + AFSP

The American Foundation for Suicide Prevention (AFSP) is dedicated to saving lives and bringing hope to those affected by suicide. Their core strategies focus on these areas:

  • Funding scientific research

  • Educating the public about mental health and suicide prevention

  • Advocating for public policies in mental health and suicide prevention

  • Supporting survivors of suicide loss and those affected by suicide

This organization and cause is of great importance to me, as suicide has impacted me in a variety of ways. Loops of Gray is a proud supporter of the AFSP through both regular monthly donations as part of the Voices of Hope program and the annual Out of the Darkness community walk in St. Louis, MO.
