Our Deepest Gratitude

The only people with whom you should try to get even are those who have helped you. ~John E. Southard






On behalf of the friends and family of Joshua Amaral, Steve Woodard and Peter Matt Burns we would like to thank all the amazing companies that donated to help in the fight against bullying, depression and suicide. We were nothing short of amazed at the support and donations we received from the generous companies we contacted. Thank you also to Jalapenos for making our fundraising night fun and memorable and for all those who came. Each one of you made it possible for us to walk in the Out Of The Darkness Walk and with help from The American Foundation of Suicide Prevention, we all saved lives.
