Description / Comments

This originally started as a simple myspace for a group titled How to Save a Life based on the ideals behind The Fray's song How to Save a Life. All we wanted was love. We believed that was all it took to save a life.

Today it is a non-profit organization titled Open Our Eyes that believes our voice can mean something, that our voice can help save a life. Our goal is to educate our community on the following: the severity of suicide among teens, the warning signs which indicate a person is at risk, and the resources available both locally and nationally to reduce that risk. We do not take the place of talking with a medical professional. We hope to serve as a bridge to connect people with the help they need.

Open Our Eyes is a movement. It is a revolution. It is a call. It is our call.

We believe that the lesson is in the struggle not the victory. We are all one, we are all called to love. That's really all it takes.




4 out of 5 teens who attempt suicide give clear warning signs. Maybe it's time for us to open our eyes.
