SUPPORT US
More than 40,000 Americans die by suicide every year, and for every death by suicide, another 25 attempts are made. Suicide impacts all of us, and with your support, we can help to open minds to this critical issue and save lives in our communities.

VOLUNTEER
Since the inception of Jana Marie Foundation, we have seen many milestones. Providing vital resources to parents and caregivers, hosting powerful events for youth to grow their self-confidence and learn life-long coping skills, and encouraging courageous community-wide conversations are but a few of the highlights of the Foundation since its humble beginnings. We have reached thousands through our community projects and educational trainings and we couldn’t have done it alone.
Volunteers have played a significant role in each of our milestones by contributing time, skills, enthusiasm, and passion in all that they do. Volunteers serve in a variety of capacities in growing our organization, including helping with the development and implementation of programs, facilitating programs that promote creative self-expression, and being public advocates within the community.
Help us open minds and save lives by volunteering with Jana Marie Foundation.
