"I've found a way that helps me both carry on his legacy and also feel like he's still with me."
At this year's Breakfast for Hope, David shared how the Annual Samaritans 5K Run/Walk for Suicide Prevention helps him honor and feel connected to his brother Michael.
Since 1974, Samaritans has helped people find hope in human connection. In 1999, we held our first 5K to raise funds for suicide prevention and bring our community together. Join us at the 26th Annual 5K Run/Walk for Suicide Prevention to mark our 50 years of impact, honor loved ones lost to suicide, and support those who are struggling.
