I'm excited to share that I've joined the SpeakUp Race Team and am raising money for the Cameron K. Gallagher Foundation, whose mission is to cultivate awareness and understanding of teenage depression and anxiety. I'm currently training for the Crystal Coast Triathlon Ironman Distance in May. I'd love to race in honor of a cause that is important to me personally and does great work in the world.
The funds raised allow the CKG Foundation to partner with local schools and mental health professionals to implement prevention-based programs and curricula, providing education and initiating conversations amongst teens regarding depression and anxiety.
Please consider a donation to help further the important work of de-stigmatizing mental health and teaching our youth that it's ok to "SpeakUp" about their personal battles. No pressure to donate if you are not up to it or don't feel compelled. But please check out Cameron's story and what the foundation is doing. I'd love to expand their mission circle.
