One of our most important efforts is raising awareness for suicide.  We continue working with non profits, teens, adults and the community to raise awareness for the ever-growing and devastating epidemic of suicide. 

We are trying to make advances in people's lives and give back to those who work directly with those needing help to raise more awareness for suicide. We put on events, primarily our Be Heard! Off Road Show, to bring 4x4 enthusiasts together, while providing materials and information to help spread the word about suicide prevention and awareness. We have some really incredible sponsors who help us with our efforts raising money for non profits related to this cause. 

​Here's some statistics:

-Males are FOUR times more likely than females to complete suicide.
-The ratio of suicide attempts to suicide death in youth is estimated to be about 25:1, compared to about 4:1 in the elderly.

-Denver, Colorado ranks #8 for cities with the most deaths by suicide. Annual rate: 16.2 per 100,000 people annually.

-Suicide is the third leading cause of death among young people, resulting in about 4,400 deaths per year, according to the CDC. For every suicide among young people, there are at least 100 suicide attempts.
-On average, almost 3000 people commit suicide every day. Every 30 seconds, the loss of a person who killed themselves shatters the lives of family and friends​.
-Suicide costs the US $69 Billion annually
-Many suicide attempts, however, go unreported or untreated. Surveys suggest that at least one million people in the U.S. each year engage in intentionally inflicted self-harm.
​-Females ATTEMPT suicide twice as often as males.
