people supporting each other

We're excited to share that Oregon Out of the Darkness Walks were incredibly successful this year in seven communities throughout the state.  Our walks are a place for communities to come together to share stories, remember those lost, and honor those who struggle -- all with an ultimate goal of stopping suicide.

Whether it was your first walk or your 15th, we are glad you were at one (or more) walk this season.  A quick reminder that fundraising does continue through the end of the year and we would love if you could help us exeed out fundraising goals!

If you are interested in joining one of our walk planning teams to start working on the walk planning for 2027 walks we would love to connect with you!  Please fill out our volunteer application and we will connect you with your local walk organizers.
