My personal message:

Dear Friends,

Thank you for visiting my Personal Fundraising Page. This page was created in memory of our daughter Asya--our love, our joy, and our pride.  She was a very special person for everybody who knew her.  She loved friends, animals, art, movies, and rock climbing. She was full of energy and life.  It is almost impossible to believe that one day she would decide to take her life.  We all wish we knew what symptoms to look for and what to do and say to prevent such a terrible tragedy.  It is too late to help Asya, but it is still possible to help other people suffering from depression who might think to take their own life.  Through Samartins it is also possible to help survivors of suicide victims.

Samaritans dedicated themselves to help people who are in trouble and who desperately needs someone's support, someone to talk to, someone to be to be around in moments of hardships and despair.  Your modest donation will help these remarkable dedicated people to provide this service.

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!
