In memory of Ben Raemers
We help people get the support they need to stay safe from suicide

Story

My sister, Katrina, took her own life in 2011. Friend and beloved pro-skater, Ben Raemers left us by the same route this year. I want to help the world know that there are alternatives to suicide and education and open dialogue are some of our best weapons with which to wrestle these issues.

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
