Although this is a US thing I think it is a good thing and worth supporting.
Maybe we'll have one here someday.
"Out of the Darkness Overnight"
A 20-mile walk through the night to end the silence surrounding suicide
Every 18 minutes in the U.S., someone dies by suicide. This July men and women will come to Chicago from all over the country to do something bold in the face of this fact. They will walk together 20 miles through the night, from dusk until dawn.
It's called the Out of the Darkness Overnight and it's designed to help shed light on the issue of suicide. We're bringing together friends, family members and loved ones whose lives have been touched by suicide or depression, giving them a voice to issues that have previously been kept in silence.
Each walker commits to raising $1000 for the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention (AFSP). Net proceeds will help fund research and education on depression and suicide.
This person has committed to raising $2000 USD.
