🖼 Graphic Text:
1 IN 5 YOUTH STRUGGLE
(And many struggle silently.)

📲 Caption:
1 in 5 young people experience a mental health challenge each year.

That’s not statistics.
That’s our students. Our kids. Our future.

🎨 Our Color Run supports awareness and community connection — because silence isn’t the answer.
