A MESSAGE FROM Donald
In October / November 2023 I will be taking part in a 1/2 Ironman AND running the NYC Marathon in support of the National Alliance on Mental Health on Mental Illness (NAMI). 

Mental Health advocacy and awareness remains an important topic in our society and supporting bodies like NAMI to further this cause is more important than ever. 

If you would like to support NAMI, please donate generously. 

Thank you for your support. 

More about NAMI…
NAMI-NYC helps families and individuals affected by mental illness build better lives through education, support, and advocacy. As a mental health leader in New York City, NAMI-NYC provides the most comprehensive family and peer support system. Our core programs are nationally recognized, evidence-based programs.

Since 1982, NAMI-NYC has provided support to a vastly under-served population of families and individuals who live with mental illness. Our Helpline, peer-led support groups, and educational courses allow families and individuals to share their struggles, and talk about symptoms, treatments, community resources, and strategies for coping.All groups and classes are facilitated by trained peer volunteers - we have "been there," where you are, and we understand what you're going through.

Your donations help NAMI-NYC provide education, support, and advocacy to over 30,000 New Yorkers yearly, all free-of-charge to anyone who needs them.  

With your support, we will continue to expand our services to reach more New Yorkers every year.Thank you.For more information on NAMI-NYC's programs or to access their services, please contact  theHelpline: 212.684.3264 or helpline@naminyc.org
