15ForLife Foundation Open dialogue around depression and mental illness! Team store
https://www.powelllacrosse.com/collections/15-for-life-spirit-store

Robert Kavovit was an All-American father, husband, son, brother, uncle, friend, neighbor, coach, and lacrosse player. He was all about family, all the time! He succumbed to depression in March 2021. Rob wore #15 because it represented "Family," his family, the 1 girl and 5 boys that are the Kavovits. In Rob's honor his family will carry the torch of the 15 For Life Foundation to shed the shame and embarrassment around depression and mental wellness. By opening dialogue in a fresh and honest way, 15 For Life's mission is to better equip people of all ages to understand and recognize depression and mental illness potentially affecting themselves, family and/or friends. We believe that with a better understanding of genetic susceptibilities people can be less prone to the illnesses inside.

Today we recognize World Mental Health Day ๐Ÿ’š

At 15 For Life, we want to remind everyone that mental health deserves our attention every day โ€” not just when life feels overwhelming.

โœ”๏ธTake a moment to check in with yourself.
โœ”๏ธCheck in with someone you love. โœ”๏ธBreathe.
โœ”๏ธAsk for help when things feel heavy. โœ”๏ธPrioritize your peace.
โœ”๏ธBe kind to yourself and to others.

Sometimes the smallest check-in can make the biggest difference.

Mental health matters every day.

LACROSSE, COMMUNITY & A CAUSE THAT MATTERS! ๐Ÿ’™๐Ÿงก

15 for Life is proud to be part of the Pleasantville Fall Frenzy on Sunday, October 11th!

Weโ€™re excited to join Dadโ€™s Club of Pleasantville and Break the Hold (BTH) for a day filled with lacrosse, teamwork, community, and a shared commitment to mental health awareness.

Itโ€™s about more than just the game. Itโ€™s about coming together, supporting one another, breaking the stigma, and reminding our young athletes that mental health matters just as much as physical health.

Good luck to all the teams taking the field! We look forward to a great day of lacrosse while spreading a message that matters far beyond the field.

๐Ÿ’™๐Ÿงก Play with purpose. Speak up. Support one another.

September may be ending, but the need to check in, speak up, and remind people they matter does not end with a calendar page.

Su***de prevention is not a month. It is a year-round commitment to show up for the people around us, to ask the hard questions, to listen without judgment, and to never assume someone already knows how much they matter.

At 15 For Life, this is our mission every single day.

Keep checking in.โ€จKeep reaching out.โ€จKeep talking about mental health.โ€จKeep reminding people they are loved, needed, and never alone.

Because one conversation can change a moment. One moment can change a life.
๐Ÿ’™๐Ÿงก

If you or someone you know needs support, reach out to family or a friend, or call or text 988.

๐Ÿ’œ WORLD SU***DE PREVENTION DAY | SEPTEMBER 10 ๐Ÿฉต

Today, 15 For Life stands together to remind everyone that you matter, your voice matters, and your life matters.

Sometimes the most powerful thing we can do is simply listen. Start the conversation. Check in on someone. Let them know they donโ€™t have to face a difficult moment alone.

One conversation can open a door to support. One act of kindness can make a difference. ๐Ÿฉต๐Ÿ’œ

Listen. Support. Connect. Hope.

Letโ€™s continue creating a community where reaching out is encouraged, asking for help is okay, and everyone knows they matter.

15 For Life โ€” Every conversation matters. Every voice matters. Every life matters.
