Peace of Mind 5k - Running for Mental Health Awareness and Suicide Prevention

We are collaborating with Peace of Mind 5k to raise awareness for mental health and enhance our ability to serve our community further, overturning the stigmas that lead to suicide and doing what SYM does best: bringing people together.

This event isn’t just a race—it’s a celebration of community and the healing power of movement in nature. Together, we’ll raise funds to provide mental health scholarships, enhance support in our local community, and strengthen our shared mission to uplift mental well-being for all. We aim to raise funds to support scholarships, SYM's impactful mission, and Peace of Mind's annual event to continue into the future!
