Donating your time and talents is a meaningful way to support Elyssa’s Mission and help raise awareness about suicide prevention. Whether you’d like to assist at special events, help with community outreach, or support our programs, we’d love to hear from you. If you’re interested in volunteering, please contact Palma Lacey at [email protected] or Valerie Wyant at [email protected].
Support Our Work
- Attend Our Annual Benefit. Join us each summer for our signature fundraising event, Voices of Hope: An Evening Embracing Elyssa’s Mission. Enjoy an inspiring evening while helping bring life-saving suicide prevention programs to schools across Illinois.
- Host a Fundraiser. Turn your passion into action by hosting a fundraiser to benefit Elyssa’s Mission. Whether you celebrate a birthday, honor or remember a loved one, organize a workplace or school fundraiser, or simply invite family and friends to support a cause that matters to you, every dollar helps bring life-saving suicide prevention programs to schools. You can easily create an online fundraiser through Facebook or choose another platform that works best for you. Our team is happy to provide ideas, resources, and support to help make your fundraiser a success.
- Spread the Word. Help raise awareness by sharing our website and educational resources. By learning the warning signs, risk factors, and how to help someone in crisis, you become part of the effort to reduce stigma and save lives.
- Become a Volunteer. Whether you’d like to help at our Annual Benefit, support community events, or assist with our programs, we’d love to have you on our team.
