Walk aims to bring suicide, depression 'out of the darkness'
The Wake Forest Out of the Darkness community walk is being organized by a local mom who lost her only child to suicide.
Posted — UpdatedI've written about Carolyn Zahnow several times over the past couple of years.
"The devastation was enormous not only to me, but everyone Cameron touched during his 18 years here," she wrote me in an email. "The bright side to my story is the many activities I do today to prevent additional suicides as well as postvention for suicide survivors of loss."
"At the event, you’ll find several memorial activities that help survivors of suicide loss honor their loved ones," Zahnow said. "We also gather to raise awareness to the depression that can lead to suicide."
It's free to walk, but even a small donation will give you a chance to win some door prizes. Donations go to the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention.
