END VETERAN SUICIDE
5K Run/Walk

 

Proceeds will benefit All Veteran Group

Saturday, May 25th & Sunday, May 25th, 2023

Run/Walk Begins sharply at 7:00 PM

Our goal is to bring attention to this sad statistic. These are Heroes whose lives were changed by what they saw or experienced during their service. This topic is very personal to the All Veteran Group. We want to raise as much money as possible to help AVG assist as many suffering service members as possible.

We set a minimum entry fee of $25 per adult and $10 per child (ages 6-12), which includes a t-shirt, wristband, and admission to the festival for the day. Please donate more if you are moved to do so. Parking is not included.

The Veterans Administration (VA) estimates that 22 veterans die by suicide every day, and as many as 950 suicide attempts occur each month among veterans receiving services through the VA. Studies are showing that over 40% of US soldiers returning home from Iraq or Afghanistan suffer from a mental disorder or behavioral problem.

This event will help raise awareness and promote the prevention of this epidemic by bringing the community together to memorialize those lost and let Veterans, their friends, and families know they are not alone,

Have a great day, and see you at the event!!!
