These care packages are delivered or mailed to those who have lost a loved one to suicide. They include items from a list compiled by fellow bereaved, that from their experience provided the most comfort. Most of all they provide hope that this unfathomable loss is survivable. That we are stronger together in our very unique, but shared experience.

Our events are geared towards supporting the skateboarding community in their creativity, strength, and mental health. We also aim to educate the public on the mental, physical, and creative benefits of skateboarding. We welcome all ages, and genders to explore skateboarding.
STRONGER TOGETHER BASKETS.
We recognize that suicide loss has an immense ripple effect. It effects the entire family, friends, school systems, work place, and so much more. We have researched registry and meta-analytic studies that show first-degree relatives / suicide-bereaved people show roughly 2.5–4.6× higher risk of suicide or suicidal behavior than non-exposed people. Therefore, we believe that support after suicide loss (Postvention) is also suicide prevention. Our community events are designed to support all who are effected by suicide loss.
