My motivation
Fundraising for cause areas including:
Men's health
Mental health and suicide prevention

I work in a wonderful, but unstable industry full of emotionally charged artists who are often celebrated for their emotional vulnerability. Over the course of my lifetime, I’ve met many people who’ve struggled with mental health. I’ve lost friends to suicide and substance abuse. Personally, I’ve battled alcohol and depression and am proud to say I’ve been alcohol free for over four years now. I lost my mother to cancer a year ago and miss her dearly. To say that it took a toll on my family would be an understatement. My incredible wife also gave birth to my beautiful daughter 9 weeks ago. I just want to do my part to build a healthier and happier world for my children to grow up in.

My son deals with severe social anxiety and major depressive disorder. He is making progress but he feels that stigma of males not showing what is too often perceived as “weakness.” Thank you for your efforts to increase awareness and support for mental health. I am also a long-time NCIS fan. I love the new show. Great job! Amanda Cassity
