THE ART OF DOING SOMETHING ABOUT IT
Our mission is to inspire action and possibility through the power of shared stories.
Through storytelling and purposeful action, we promote mental health awareness and support efforts to prevent suicide.
YEAR 2 RELAY RUN
A STORY CAN CHANGE A LIFE
During Mental Health Awareness Month, May 23—25, we bring together 12 advocate runners for a relay run from Dallas to Austin. Each step they take raises awareness and funds for mental health awareness and suicide prevention efforts. This journey is about more than running—it’s about amplifying real stories that inspire action and create lasting impact.

Partnering for Prevention: Our Support for AFSP
Why We Support the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention (AFSP):
At Say Less Projects, our mission is rooted in mental health awareness and suicide prevention. That’s why we donate a portion of our relay run support funds to the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention (AFSP).
AFSP leads the way in funding scientific research, educating communities, advocating for better mental health policies, and supporting those affected by suicide. Their work directly aligns with our purpose: to inspire action, connection, and hope.
In Year 1, we donated over $4,100 to AFSP through our relay. Our founder also raised over $2,000 running the Chicago Marathon with AFSP in 2021. This partnership is personal—and it’s just the beginning.
