We are a non-profit charity whose goal is to prevent youth suicide through education. The foundation was started by Rick Cantor to honor his daughter, Avery, a student at Lafayette High School in Wildwood, Mo. who tragically took her own life in the spring of 2014. We offer presentations to high school and middle school classes as well as to youth groups, youth sports teams, clubs, and businesses. We have an acute care fund to help ease the burden of mental health costs for those in need. In addition we give away up to 10 scholarships to high school students who have participated in suicide prevention and awareness activities. Everything we offer is totally free.
