About The One More Day Movement, Inc.The One More Day Movement aims to spread mental health awareness among students, teachers, parents, and youth organizations by providing group discussions to students and training to teachers and parents at no cost to the schools. Suicide is the second leading cause of death in teens and young adults. Recent years have seen an increase in these fatalities, along with a spike in school violence, substance abuse, and self-harm. Silence isn’t stopping the issue; it’s only causing more suffering. Knowing how to recognize signs of a mental health crisis, being able to speak on this issue, and making others feel safe to express mental health concerns can save a life.

What differentiates you from the competition?We provide adult education and training on suicide and crisis prevention as well as group discussions that are tailored to various age groups. We offer students the opportunity to express themselves in a safe environment, so we can not only provide education, support, and resources but also start mental health education at an early age to aid in crisis prevention.

If you had one message to get across to future customers, what would it be?It starts, by talking…

What is the biggest marketing challenge that you will face in the upcoming year?The biggest challenge we face is the stigma that still exists around mental health, especially in schools. It creates a barrier that prevents people from asking necessary questions and seeking help.

What is the core mission of your organization? To end the stigma on mental health, provide free education and crisis/suicide prevention to teachers and parents, and let youth know they are not alone; and they do not have to suffer in silence.

How do you measure impact and success in your programs? Reduction in reported school incidents, staff knowledge on what to do in crisis situations and available resources for both youth and families.

What are your biggest fundraising or outreach challenges? Time and volunteers.

How do you build long-term relationships with donors and supporters? Maintain communication through contact and social media mentions. Acknowledge their support and provide information on how their contributions are being utilized, such as funding specific projects, supporting community initiatives, or helping to achieve organizational goals to ensure transparency and trust with supporting agencies and donors.

What keeps you motivated in this work?I’ve seen success stories, and I want to see more of those, and less tragedy. There is a great need, and I want to be part of the solution.
