**Sponsorship sign-ups close MONDAY, OCTOBER 5!**

If you’ve been thinking about sponsoring Never Walk Alone, now is the time to make it happen!

Join us Saturday, October 10 at TCO Stadium at Viking Lakes for Never Walk Alone — a community event bringing people together to raise awareness, spark important conversations, and remind everyone that no one has to walk alone.

And your sponsorship does more than support one event. It helps SOAR provide grants to Minnesota schools for programs that support student and staff mental health, including mental health first aid, su***de prevention, classroom-based mental health programming, restorative practices, trauma-informed approaches and more.

When you sponsor Never Walk Alone, you’re helping us raise the funds needed to put these resources directly into Minnesota schools and the communities they serve.

Whether you’re a business looking to make an impact, connect with the community and gain visibility at the event, or simply want to support the mental health of Minnesota students and staff — we’d love to have you join us.

Sponsorship deadline: Monday, October 5

Today is World Su***de Prevention Day.

Today, we pause to remember the people we have lost to su***de — the children, teenagers, parents, siblings, friends, classmates, coworkers and neighbors whose lives ended far too soon. We remember their lives, the people who loved them, and the communities forever changed by their loss.

And we remember that su***de is preventable.

If you or someone you know is struggling, please know that help is available:

• Call or text 988 to reach the 988 Su***de & Crisis Lifeline, available 24/7

• Chat with a crisis counselor at 988lifeline.org

• In an immediate emergency, call 911 or go to the nearest emergency department

• Veterans, service members and their loved ones can call 988 and press 1

• Reach out to a trusted friend, family member, teacher, counselor, colleague or mental health professional. You don't have to carry it alone.

At SOAR, we believe prevention starts long before a crisis.

We are working to change outcomes by helping schools and communities create environments where young people feel seen, safe and supported. Through mental health education, su***de prevention training, social-emotional learning, restorative practices, trauma-informed approaches and other programs, we are working to give young people and the adults who support them the tools to recognize when someone is struggling — and know what to do next.

But we can't do this work alone.

You can help us make a difference.

Here are a few ways you can get involved with SOAR:

• Become a partner — Join us in making a larger, more sustainable impact for Minnesota youth.

• Make a donation — Your support helps bring mental health and su***de prevention resources into schools and communities.

• Sponsor a SOAR event — Put your organization behind a mission that directly impacts young people.

• Attend our events — Show up, connect with others and help us raise the resources needed to do this work.

• Connect us with your company or organization — Introduce SOAR to someone who may want to invest in youth mental health.

• Share our mission — Follow, share and help us spread the word about su***de prevention and mental health resources.

• Bring SOAR to your community — Help us connect with schools, educators and community leaders who could benefit from our programs.

Every conversation matters. Every connection matters. Every investment in prevention matters.

Today, we remember those we have lost.

Tomorrow, we keep working for those who are still here.

Together, we can change the narrative. Together, we can help make sure no young person has to face their darkest moments alone.
