To Write Love on Her Arms (TWLOHA) has launched its 13th Annual Suicide Prevention Campaign titled Please Stay Alive. It will run through September, which is Suicide Prevention Month. The initiative aims to enhance access to critical mental health resources via the campaign website, PleaseStayAlive.com. The site offers free educational materials, prevention training, personal stories, and actionable steps to support those struggling with suicidal thoughts.
The Please Stay Alive campaign encourages public engagement through various means, such as purchasing prevention packs, making donations, fundraising for mental health scholarships, participating in social media challenges, and streaming on platforms like Twitch. TWLOHA's goal is to raise $200,000 to fund mental health care scholarships and provide affordable resources through their FIND HELP Tool.
