On Friday, July 29, 2022, Team Suicide Prevention met up with Linda Pulver of Hope Is Oxygen at the amazing BEHEARD PopUp Care Village Event in Tulsa to make a donation to support her mission in delivering Hope to families affected by suicide. A check for $2,000 was presented to Hope Is Oxygen on behalf of Team Suicide Prevention. This donation will help Linda and her team purchase supplies for Gifts of Hope Packs, Gifts of Hope Art Therapy Coloring Books, Suicide Prevention Stickers with Crisis Hotline Number/Text Numbers, and Gifts of Boxes of Hope.

From the words of Linda - “According to the World Health Organization, almost 800,000 people die every year from suicide. At Hope is Oxygen, we believe that number can be reduced. Dramatically reduced. Suicidal people are desperately attempting to escape suffering that feels unbearable. They have lost hope. Suicidal people are so blinded by their desire for their emotional pain to stop that they see no way to relief other than through death. They have lost hope. Most suicidal people are deeply conflicted about ending their lives. They wish for an alternative, but they just don’t see one. They have lost hope. At Hope is Oxygen, we believe that one of the most important ways we can help prevent suicide is by restoring hope.”

Spreading Hope

Team Suicide Prevention is proud to help support Linda and her team and we would like to sincerely thank our supporters for their contributions to enable donations like this possible.

In 2021, Team Suicide Prevention finished the 3,007 mile Race Across America and just a few short weeks ago, we completed the 930 Race Across The West. We ride our bicycles to raise awareness for suicide prevention and to spread hope.

We invite you to visit our website and learn more about our mission to raise awareness for suicide prevention and to spread hope.

Thanks for your support.

Kudos to the BEHEAD Team for the wonderful work they are doing.
