As a fellow member of the community and as an individual who follows current events my heart is crushed every time I learn of yet another young person who has been bullied into a depression so sever they turn to suicide as what they perceive to be their only option. I cannot help but wonder what they were thinking to take someone so precious away from those who love them. Was no one there to tell them they love them? Was no one there to tell them what beautiful things are on the horizon if they just hold on? What would have happened if there was just someone there to tell them truthfully and honestly that It Gets Better? As a caring and compassionate member of our community these are questions, all or in part, that I am sure cross your mind as well. An answer to these very questions is what inspired Dan Savage to begin a project to do just that. Dan Savage had a vision to create an undeniably large database of video messages telling our young people that they are loved, that they are important to this world, and that life gets so much better than the misery so many of us experienced growing up amongst bullies and abusers. This project is called the It Gets Better Project (www.itgetsbetter.org) inspiring individuals all over the world to record videos spreading the message of hope to those individuals whom are in so desperate need.

 

This cause is so important and as a member of the local community I felt so inspired by the efforts of this project that it was clear to me I needed to do whatever it took to make sure these video messages, recorded by individuals of all walks of life, are supported and get a chance to reach those who need to hear them. It is in that spirit I chose to create a fundraising event called the Cleona DeFlair Show for Hope. Last year, the Cleona De%92%92Flair Show for Hope through community and business owners such as you, raised $3,215 to support the It Gets Better Project. This year we are redoubling our efforts. We are contacting you today as part of a 3 month campaign to find likeminded individuals who are as tired as we are of seeing our youth fall to bullies or depression so sever they take their lives and are willing to donate and do what it takes to make sure a non-profit organization as important as this has the resources necessary to save the lives of our youth.

 

Considering the importance of preventing yet another tragic suicide, the important work of the It Gets Better Project, and the efforts of the Cleona DeFlair Show for Hope, will you please make a donation today to support this endeavor?
