My personal message:

We lost our son, Jonathan, on January 26, 2004 at the age of 27. He left a wife and three young children. Jon was a loving and caring person who was always there to lend a helping hand or just flash that happy smile he always wore. We miss him very much but have found solace in a wonderful group of people at the Safe Place in Medford. I honestly don't know where I'd be if it weren't for this "second family" we have found there. Each one of us in the group has lost someone to suicide and we all want to help spread the word about suicide but especially about it's prevention. Your donation, whether large or small, will help the Samaritans spread the word and hopefully, prevent another suicide from occurring.

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to make a contribution to our fundraising efforts. Many thanks for your support-- and don't forget to forward this to anyone who you think might want to donate too!
