3rd Annual Make Your Mark on Mental Health Gala
Make your mark on the lives of our region’s next generation. Join us for the 3rd annual Make Your Mark on Mental Health fundraiser and do more to prevent suicide in our community.
At a time when suicide death is impacting youth and young adults in South Dakota at unprecedented rates, efforts to Make Your Mark on Mental Health are needed more than ever. Let’s join together as a community to make a once-in-a-generation impact on youth and young adult suicide in our region at Lost&Found’s annual mental health fundraiser.
Join Lost&Found at The District for an evening of healing through art. This event will feature live art production, a silent and live auction featuring local artists, along with dinner and a program featuring emcees Ashley Thompson and Mitchell Olson from KELOLAND Living. Guests will have the opportunity to purchase art by local artists benefiting Lost&Found, as well as join the awarding of the annual Spirit of Resilience Award and DJ Smith-Crawley “Doing More to Prevent Suicide” Award.
Thanks to our generous Matching Partner, Avera Health, up to $10,000 of proceeds from the evening’s event will be matched to support Lost&Found youth and young adult suicide prevention and postvention programs in the more than 35 South Dakota and Minnesota communities we serve. Thanks to your support at the Make Your Mark mental health fundraiser, thousands of South Dakota and Minnesota’s next generation will benefit from peer mental health support programs, suicide loss survivor resources, and improved community mental health data.
Tickets for individuals are $100, which includes access to the art show and auction, dinner, and program. Tables of eight (8) seats can be purchased for $750. Event sponsorship opportunities are available!
