You may remember this Hallowe'en picture of one of my fans, an awesome kid named Duncan.
He suffered a loss recently when his best friend Connor took his own life.
Since then, Duncan has been raising awareness and funds for
Kids Help Phone. 1-800-668-6868
There was a Walk So Kids Can Talk walk in memory of Connor today. You can still donate through the
LINK.
Duncan has also been baking these amazing Star Wars cookies to raise some money.
This is a great cause, and something we are often afraid to talk about. Talk about it.
1-800-668-6868
This is the booth Duncan set up at the kids market a few weeks ago to raise money and pass along the phone number.
I'll leave you with what Duncan wrote me about his friend.
"Connor was a kind and caring person. He loved reading, Doctor Who, Star Wars, Dungeons and Dragons, board games and art. He was creative and really smart. He was in the book club at school and used to be a library helper. He was a grade 8 student and was going to go to a specialized robotics programme for grade 8. Connor took his own life in February. He had just turned 14."
