Aevitas is proud to support the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention (AFSP). This year, we are gearing up for the 2024 Out of the Darkness Walk, and we hope that you can join us! Whether you’re interested in the walk or not, please keep reading to learn how to get involved with this very important cause.
What is the AFSP
The American Foundation for Suicide Prevention (AFSP), has been around since 1987. The organization’s mission is to “save lives and bring hope to those affected by suicide”. The AFSP helps to fund scientific research into mental health and suicide prevention, educates the public, advocates for positive public policies, and provides support for survivors of suicide loss and those affected by suicide.
You can learn more about this foundation, its history, and its ongoing mission and countless activities HERE
About the Out Of the Darkness Walk
One such activity that the AFSP sponsors each year is the Out of the Darkness Walk. These walks are held around the country and serve to bring people in the community together, as well as raise awareness and funds for the cause.
Aevitas Fitness will be teaming up with Garrett Meeson’s team this year to complete the Capital Region Walk for RITA in Saratoga Springs. We hope you’re able to join us, but if not, we have other ways you can support the cause below!
