Why do you walk? Who do you walk for? Tomorrow, post a photo using the hashtag or even just share with someone the reason you'll be walking. So many more people are affected by su***de & depression than we think. Let's open up the conversation for those suffering in silence!

Come out to 1000 Degrees Pizza in Blacksburg TODAY from 2-9pm and part of the proceeds will go to Out of the Darkness! 🍕
