Dear Community Friend,

For 45 years, CONTACT of Mercer County has assisted local residents experiencing crisis or contemplating suicide. While CONTACT is made up of professionally trained volunteers, we can’t do it alone. Please consider supporting CONTACT financially, so we can continue to help those in need of a critical service.

By the Numbers, United States Suicide in 2019 was the:
• Second leading cause of death for youth
• Tenth leading cause of death for adults
• 47,000 plus completed suicides
• More than 1.2 million estimated suicide attempts

Through its Volunteers in 2020, CONTACT of Mercer County has:
• Answered 2,072 calls
• Responded to 2,319 Lifeline Crisis Chats
• Initiated 12,694 wellness calls to seniors living alone through CONTACT’s Reassurance program

CONTACT accomplishes a great deal. However, we need your help to continue to provide valuable resources to our community.

With thanks and gratitude,
Debi Gallo, Gala Chair and Eleanor K. Letcher, M.Ed., CSW, Executive Director
