The loss of Zach was a heartbreaking tragedy that rocked our community to its core.​ During his journey, Zach often said that he felt alone,
like nobody cared.

Our Penny Pledge Program is a trauma-informed initiative empowering youth with vital tools, skills, and language to

 #ShatterTheStigma 
and save lives.

Zach’s pennies serve as

visual symbols to prompt

active listening, start

bold conversations, and

recognize our own

mental health needs.
