Access & Features
- Open to the public
- Registration/RSVP
The Out of the Darkness Walk is the culmination of our year's worth of effort to raise money and awareness for the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention. Alpha Tau Omega hosts fundraising events and contacts donors throughout the year before the walk. We raise over $15,000 each year, and we aim to reach that goal again this year. The event begins at the Wellness Center at around 10:00 AM with speeches from the W&M students, faculty, and community. The walk itself occurs at around 11:00, where participants walk a mile in respect for those who have lost their lives or have loved ones that have lost their lives to suicide. We strive to raise suicide prevention and mental health awareness throughout the school and local community.
We welcome all participants and donors. Anyone interested in walking or donating can register with the link provided.
