Check it out yourself. Go to the website for the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention (afsp.org) and weed through all the DONATE HERE pages and goofy stock pictures of happy people, navigate your way to “Find Support” and then click the blue button “I’m having thoughts of suicide”.
All it has are 3 links to other sites: Suicide Prevention Lifeline, Veterans Crisis Line, and Crisis Text – all of which are funded by the federal government (your taxes).
Give me $50 a year for web hosting fees and I’ll put up a web page that does the same thing and save $654,071.
Where the fuck is all this money going? Have any of you seen a dime, or gotten any support from any of these megabucks suicide prevention organizations? If you read a news story about some guy who blows his brains out on the front steps of the AFSP, that’ll be me. Maybe someone will get the fucking message.

Never. I will damn sure start a Political Party during 2020-2030 because there is enough that never had been done.
By the Time – we have also here 3 Lines for Suicide Prevention.
Nice find
Someone has to finance the CEO’s lavish lifestyle. Why not us? And everyone knows putting up a link to a hotline means you care, so mission accomplished.
Dammit. Sally Struthers has struck again.
Ha!
She had that crying thing down.
I just had a look at their site. Actually you can donate, give a gift, or match.
Who knew?
