| The message of hope and healing in the book "Unraveling My Purple Sweater" is an important one to share with everyone touched by mental illness. However, there are many individuals and organizations without the resources to purchase it. This program was recently begun in response to this identified need. The goal is to make this book available to everyone, irregardless of socio-economic status, age and/or state of emotional health. Perhaps you remember a time in your life when someone's kind generosity gave you the inspiration and encouragement that made all the difference for you. This program allows you to now be on the giving end of this chain of hope. As a sponsor, you will support the fight against stigma while also directly helping someone affected by mental illness. If you have the resources, please consider sponsoring a book for scholarship. And if you are not able to make a contribution at this time for whatever reason, please consider passing this idea to someone else who could. |
