This year the foundation will hold its 6th annual golf outing on Monday, September 16, 2019 at Heatherwoode Golf Club in Springboro. The funds from this year’s outing will be donated to DAYTON CHILDREN’S MENTAL HEALTH INITIATIVE which will provide the necessary services and programs for youth who need hospitalization and therapeutic care.
Our children are facing a crisis:
• Suicide is the SECOND leading cause of death in youth ages 10-24
• 7% of high school students have attempted suicide in the past year (that’s equivalent to 140 students out of 2,000 at Springboro High School)
• 17% of high school students have thought seriously about suicide in the past year (that’s 340 out of 2,000)
• 1 in 6 youth will require services for a mental health/behavioral issue
• 26% increase in mental health admissions at Dayton Children’s in the past year
SMA is a disease that affects the motor nerve cells within the spinal cord, robbing people of their physical strength and making it difficult to walk, eat, or even breathe. It affects approximately 1 in 11,000 babies and 1 in every 50 American is a carrier. The Cure SMA Ohio Kentucky and Indiana Chapter (“OKI”) provides support for families affected by SMA through fundraising activities and community togetherness. They provide information like opportunities for local advocacy and awareness to affected families.
Give online to our general cause fund.
