🧡 Make the Pledge: Because THEY MATTER

At AASP THEY MATTER (Action & Awareness for Suicide Prevention), we believe that saving lives starts with compassion, awareness, and action. When you make a pledge, you are supporting real programs that offer hope, education, support, and emergency help for people in crisis—often in ways no one else is reaching them.
