The Duck Cup Memorial Fund is a Non-Profit Organization formed of graduates from New Prauge High School Class of 2000. In 2001, we had the extremely unfortunate experience of lsing a close friend to suicide. It affected us all tremendously. Several years later, we eventually started this organization dedicated to providing resources for mental health awareness and suicide prevention. We started this journey in 2012 and as a result of very generous funding through multiple fundraisers, and have since expanded from just high school studentts in New Prague to grades 4-12 in over 30 School Districts accross MN and Iowa.
Our annual speaking events are held throughout the year. In 2019 we reached over 10,000 students, parents, teachers and community members. In 2022 we are on trackt to reach around 30,000!
We are dedicated to ending the stigman associated with menal health issues, and moving away from a crisis-based response to prevention through education.
