Our Motivation

Our motivation is our friend, John McGeary, and all others like him who felt that suicide was their only answer. John was a strong, happy, friendly, eager to help anybody, husband, dad, brother, uncle and son. While he had no shortage of friends to talk to, he was a stubborn Irishman and never easily asked for help. Whether it was depression, or anxiety, or both, asking for help may have made a difference for John and all those who still struggle with the decision he made.

So our motivation is simple. It is to make a difference in the lives of others. It is to make "talking mental" trendy. This month, in particular, it is to help men understand that we all have struggles and it is OK to talk about it. Let's make sure our men understand that it is OK to share their feelings, ask for help, and give themselves a break.

$20,322!! Another goal achieved! Let's go for $25,000, but if we don't get there, know how incredibly blessed I feel to be surrounded by so much love and support and how proud I am of the efforts of our 87 PERSON TEAM (and growing)!!! I am so grateful for the community of friends who are supporting this effort, and those in crisis, as teammates and/or donors. Never in my wildest dreams would I have imagined this kind of success in 10 short days. Thank you Team Dash and friends!

Hello Team Dash!!
Every day I look at this page I am more blown away than the day before. YOU PEOPLE ROCK!!!

FYI, we are now 80 people strong! 80 people!!!

Take the time to put your face to your page. I love seeing the faces and the connections to one another.

TEAM DASH...IS...AMAZING!
Whether you have donated money, signed up to MOVE, or just encouraged someone, YOU ARE APPRECIATED!
In 6 short days:
* We are 65 members strong!
* We have raised $14, 562!
* We are the #4 fundraising team in the US!
* We are the #15 fundraising team in the world!
Keep moving! Make sure to LOG YOUR MOVEMENT on your page. The Movember folks say to run or walk, but our team recognizes running, walking, biking, yoga, Barre, meditation, dancing and any other form of movement that makes your mind happy. Assign the number of miles you feel appropriate for your movement, and be sure to log what you have done.
