Dear Frank,
Ten days ago, when you shared my message on the PostSecret Blog that the HopeLine needed urgent help, the most amazing thing happened - over 600 people responded with donations totaling over $30,000.00!
At our darkest hour, days from filing for bankruptcy, all of you saved us. We appreciate all your support; every dollar, every personal note, every thought and prayer are important to us.
This is a miracle.
Warm regards,

Obviously these folks need continued support. Give a little or a lot if you can.
And finally:
a few DANGER SIGNS OF SUICIDE:
Talk about suicide
Statements about hopelessness, helplessness or worthlessness
Preoccupation with death
Suddenly happier, calmer
Loss of interest in things one cares about
Unusual visiting or calling people one cares about
Making arrangements; setting one’s affairs in order
Giving things away
