Walking Together to End Suicide – Support Us!

Why We Walk in the Jay Walkers Challenge this September

Suicide statistics are staggering, with 800,000 lives lost annually worldwide. But there is hope. Peer-to-peer fundraising is a critical part of the mission of the Jay Walkers Challenge, and Team [Team Name] is stepping up to make a difference. 

We aren't just walking; we are raising funds that will exclusively support suicide prevention measures that work. Our team is committed to bringing proven interventions to scale, ensuring fewer families experience the loss of a loved one to suicide. 

Our 2025 Impact
In 2025, funds raised by dedicated teams like ours directly supported:

Crisis Response Planning (CRP): Training clinicians in a suicide-specific intervention that reduces suicidal ideation in patients up to 76%.

Pax Good Behavior Game: Equipping teachers with a proven classroom management system that limits the lifetime occurrence of suicidal ideation in students. 

How You Can Help in 2026
This September, our team is taking on the 800,000-step challenge to improve resources available to those in need. By donating, you help us reach our fundraising target and directly support vital, evidence-based initiatives. Funding from this year's event will go toward clinician training in CAMS-care, an evidence-based intervention specialized for suicide prevention.

Every $420 raised provides training for one clinician.

We invite you to support us as walkers, as donors, or both!
