Dear Friends of Elyssa’s Mission,

Our 16th annual Race to Save Young Lives benefit is on Sunday, October 22, 2023 at Pinstripes in Northbrook. We hope that you will consider sponsoring this important event.

Suicide is the second leading cause of death among young people ages 10-34 (CDC, 2017). To challenge this statistic, Elyssa’s Mission® has taken a leadership role in Illinois by educating school communities on depression and suicide. Since inception, we have educated well over one million students, parents, school staff and community members.

Elyssa’s Mission is a non-profit organization that provides resources to support at-risk teens and prevent suicide. Elyssa’s Mission fully funds and implements the evidence-based Signs of Suicide program in middle and high schools throughout Illinois. The SOS program not only educates teens on warning signs and what to do if they are concerned about themselves or a friend, but further helps identify at-risk students and link them to essential mental health services. We assist with all components of the SOS program including planning, training, teaching and follow-up. In 2022-2023, we educated 77,000 students and referred 6,257 teens on for vital community-based mental health support services. An additional 97 teens were hospitalized due to imminent risk of suicide. We have witnessed time and time again how the SOS program saves young lives.
 

Your partnership enables Elyssa’s Mission to continue to provide the programs and resources so urgently needed. Currently we partner with over 300 schools, growing at a rate of 50 new schools a year. With your sponsorship, we will be able to expand our reach even further.

Please review the sponsorship packages and choose how you would like to help.
