Stop The Stigma

Join Sam Gerry co-founder of Kick it for a Cause and I as we dive into conversation about suicide prevention and awareness. Kick It for a Cause, Inc. is a charity kickball tournament turned nonprofit organization located in Woburn, Massachusetts. Their mission is to raise awareness and funds for suicide prevention through intramural kickball tournaments, scholarships, educational programs, and social media posts.
