Look at what AFSP can do with the money you raise. $10 – Distributes one Depression and Bipolar Awareness educational program (DVD). $50 - Provides AFSP educational materials to 25 people. If just one person seeks help after reading these materials, a life could be saved for less than the cost of dinner and a movie. $100 - Covers the cost of More Than Sad: Suicide Prevention and Education for Teachers and Other School Personnel (DVD and supporting program). $250 - Enables AFSP to recruit and train a volunteer field advocate who can then educate Federal, State and local elected officials about suicide prevention. $500 - Trains a new Survivor of Suicide support group facilitator. Each new group assists newly bereaved survivors and helps them see that they are not alone. $1,000 – Funds a year of research into the genetic, biological or behavioral factors that contribute to suicide when added to $1,000 from 44 other walkers. The number of lives potentially saved by this research is incalculable. $5,000 – Places AFSP’s innovative Interactive Screening Program (ISP) at a college or university to identify at risk students and get them into treatment. Every dollar you raise will help you save a life. afsp.donordrive/index.cfm?fuseaction=donordrive.participant&participantID=425824
